    On how to measure new non-physical quantities

    This paper aims to address the challenges posed by the evolving landscape of measurements, especially in non-physical domains. With a growing need for informed decision-making, the landscape of measurements has expanded significantly. To address this, measurement procedures for non-physical measurements need to be developed. This paper proposes a framework for achieving traceability in non-physical measurements. A six-step process for the creation of novel measurements is suggested by the following steps. Define the underlying concept, dissect the concept into its constituent components, identify suitable measurement techniques, ensure the validity and reliability of chosen techniques, determine appropriate measurement scales and establish a reference for traceability.
