This open access book proposes a conceptual framework for
understanding measurement across a broad range of scientific fields
and areas of application, such as physics, engineering, education,
and psychology. It addresses contemporary issues and controversies
within measurement in light of the framework, including
operationalism, definitional uncertainty, and the relations between
measurement and computation, and describes how the framework,
operating as a shared concept system, supports understanding
measurement’s work in different domains, using examples in the
physical and human sciences. This revised and expanded second
edition features a new analysis of the analogies and the
differences between the error/uncertainty-related approach adopted
in physical measurement and the validity-related approach adopted
in psychosocial measurement. In addition, it provides a better
analysis and presentation of measurement scales, in particular
about their relations with quantity units, and introduces the
measurand identification/definition as a part of the "Hexagon
Framework" along with new examples from the physical and
psychosocial sciences. Researchers and academics across a wide
range of disciplines including biological, physical, social, and
behavioral scientists, as well as specialists in measurement and
philosophy appreciate the work’s fresh and provocative approach
to the field at a time when sound measurements of complex
scientific systems are increasingly essential to solving critical
global problems.

Das sogenannte Showrooming" wird fur den traditionellen
Einzelhandel immer mehr zum Problem. Die Konsumenten begutachten
hierbei die Ware im Laden und begeben sich anschliessend zuhause
vor ihren Computer und bestellen diese beim gunstigsten Anbieter im
Internet. Dies fuhrt dazu, dass der Umsatz des Online-Handels stark
wachst, der des Offline-Handels jedoch stagniert. Hier stellt sich
nun die Frage: was fur Chancen und Risiken ergeben sich fur das
Marketing des Einzelhandels
