文摘In this context, Abraham Kaplan （1964） distin- guishes three classes of things that scientists measure. The first class is direct observables: those things we can observe rather simply and directly, like the color of an apple or the check mark made in a questionnaire. The second class is indirect observables. If someone puts a check mark beside female in our questionnaire, then we can indirectly, observe that person's gender. Min- utes of agency board meetings provide indirect obser- vations of past agency actions. Finally, constructs are theoretical creations based on observations but which themselves cannot be observed directly or indirectly.
Depression, then, is an abstraction-a construct that consists of a "family of conceptions" （Kaplan, 1964:49） that includes your concepts that constitute depression, our concepts that make it up, and the conceptions of all those who have ever used the term. It cannot be observed directly or indirectly, because it doesn't exist. We made it up. All we can measure are the direct observables and indirect observables that we think the term depression implies. IQ is another example. It is constructed mathematically from ob- servations of the answers given to a large number of questions on an IQ test. Later in this chapter we'll discuss sources of existing scales that measure such things as social adjustment, marital satisfaction, and family risk of child abuse. These are further examples of constructs. Conceptualization
Day-to-day communication usually occurs through a system of vague and general agreements about the use of terms. Usually, people do not understand exactly what we wish to communicate, but they get the gen- eral drift of our meaning. Conceptualization is the process through which we specify precisely what we will mean when we use particular terms. Suppose we want to find out, for example, whether women are more compassionate than men. We can't meaning- fully study the question, let alone agree on the answer,
