Conceptual definition
A conceptual definition is an element of the scientific research process, in which a specific concept is defined as a measurable occurrence. It is mostly used in fields of philosophy and psychology.
Examples of ideas that are often conceptually defined include intelligence, knowledge, tolerance, and preference.
Following the establishment of a conceptual definition, the researcher must use a operational definition to indicate how the abstract concept will be measured.
