Slot: informationQuality
A qualitative term indicating the scientific rigor or reliability with which the information was generated/collected.
Comments
- This is typically based on the quality of design and execution of the study or curation activity that generated it (e.g. were relevant controls assessed to show instruments were working, were all samples taken care of and handled identically, are methods sound and well documented, etc.).
- The quality of information is intrinsic to the information itself, and not to a particular application of the information (e.g. as evidence for making an Assertion)
- The quality of information is one factor that goes into the confidence we have in the information''s veracity (i.e. that it is an accurate reflection of reality it intends to measure or describe). Other factors informing confidence may include who did it (we may just not trust some Agents), when (if data created 500 years ago, we may have less confidence in it), and for Assertions, the relevance and abundance of supporting evidence.
- Implementers should define a relevant source of codes or terms to use here, based on the needs of the domain or application.'
