Exhaustiveness is a foreign word that is primarily only used in educational language with the meaning of completeness , also in the sense of the completeness principle . It comes from the Latin exhaurire : to exhaust ( haurire : to drink, to empty). The term is often used in the social and linguistic sciences and statistics .

The existence of exhaustiveness ensures the implementation of the completeness principle, which is often required in statistical, metrological and other investigations. The derived adjective exhaustive is used to mean complete , exhaustive, or comprehensive .

Exhaustivity is used in various scientific disciplines, e.g. B.

the disjunctivity , e.g. B. in medical theory ;
the exclusivity , e.g. B. in;
the selectivity

juxtaposed as an opposite pole.

Examples (selection)

linguistics

Exhaustiveness describes the comprehensive and exclusive reading of a sentence .

Social sciences

A system of categories in the context of qualitative research is exhaustive if there is no situation in which a thing / behavior etc. cannot be clearly classified. A category system for classifying the hair color observed in passers-by in a street therefore suffers from a lack of exhaustiveness if it only uses the nominally scaled categories

blond
brown
red

contains. If a black-haired passer-by is observed, the correct classification fails due to a lack of exhaustiveness.

Inductive statistics

Exhaustiveness is a postulate for estimation procedures .
