• Category: property
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/norms
• Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)

The scale's granularity step, when discrete. Optional; absent means continuous.

Structure

Property shape: datatype property; gmeow:ScoreScale -> xsd:decimal; functional

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:scaleStep from gmeow:ScoreScale to xsd:decimal when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Common Companion Terms

gmeow:ScoreScale

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to declare the discrete step of a score scale — a five-point scale steps by one.

Avoid when

• Avoid asserting it for a continuous scale (leave it absent — absence means continuous) and avoid more than one (it is functional).

How to use

• Assert gmeow:scaleStep once on a gmeow:ScoreScale only when the scale is discrete; omit it for continuous scales.

Examples

• ex:fivePoint gmeow:scaleStep 1.0.
