Theoretical Constructs

Theoretical constructs are ideas or concepts used to explain and understand phenomena in various fields, such as science, psychology, or sociology. They are not directly observable but help frame theories and guide research. For example, "intelligence" is a theoretical construct; we can't see it directly, but we use tests and observations to study it. These constructs allow researchers to build models, make predictions, and facilitate discussions about complex topics, providing a structured way to analyze and interpret information in general knowledge.
