A numeric scale for assessments — minimum, maximum, optional step. Scale arithmetic (normalization, conversion between scales) is solver work (Principle 12).

Structure

Subclass of: gmeow:InformationObject

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:ScoreScale as a specialized kind of gmeow:InformationObject. Add statement metadata or a standpoint when the assertion needs provenance, confidence, or vantage.

Common Companion Terms

gmeow:InformationObject

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use for a numeric scoring scale — its minimum, maximum, and optional step — that a rubric or criterion declares for its assessments.

Avoid when

• Avoid encoding normalization or scale-conversion arithmetic in triples (that is solver work — Principle 12).

How to use

• Mint the scale with gmeow:scaleMin / gmeow:scaleMax (and gmeow:scaleStep when discrete), then attach it via gmeow:usesScale at the rubric level (default) or criterion level (override).

Examples

• ex:zeroToOne a gmeow:ScoreScale; gmeow:scaleMin 0.0; gmeow:scaleMax 1.0.
