Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Constructs are abstract concepts that are not directly observable but can be measured through various indicators. "Uncertainty in illness" is an abstract concept that reflects a patient's perceived uncertainty regarding their health condition, making it a construct. Gender, body temperature, and blood type are directly observable and measurable, hence not considered constructs in the context of research.
