Definitionv1DF-317
Scope
the boundary condition that determines where a claim holds, including the population, conditions, and timeframe to which a statement applies
Why This Is a Definition
This definition precisely establishes what 'scope' means in the curriculum context, identifying it as the boundary condition that determines where a claim holds and explicitly listing the three key dimensions (population, conditions, timeframe) that define scope. It distinguishes scope from mere context and provides the precise semantic boundary needed for the curriculum's contradiction-resolution framework.
