measurementTechnique

A technique, method or technology used in an $1, $1 or $1 (or $1, $1), corresponding to the method used for measuring the corresponding variable(s) (for datasets, described using $1; for $1, a $1). Often but not necessarily each $1 will have an explicit representation as (or mapping to) an property such as those defined in Schema.org, or other RDF vocabularies and "knowledge graphs". In that case the subproperty of $1 called $1 is applicable. The $1 property helps when extra clarification is needed about how a $1 was measured. This is oriented towards scientific and scholarly dataset publication but may have broader applicability; it is not intended as a full representation of measurement, but can often serve as a high level summary for dataset discovery. For example, if $1 is: molecule concentration, $1 could be: "mass spectrometry" or "nmr spectroscopy" or "colorimetry" or "immunofluorescence". If the $1 is "depression rating", the $1 could be "Zung Scale" or "HAM-D" or "Beck Depression Inventory". If there are several $1 properties recorded for some given data object, use a $1 for each $1 and attach the corresponding $1. The value can also be from an enumeration, organized as a $1.
