Attribute Detail (defined in this component only; 4/11)

isConcept

Type:	xs:boolean, predefined
Use:	optional

A value of true indicates that there is a concept which defines the group, and which is comprised of the concepts contained in the group. A group can be conceptual in purpose (that is, have a value of "concept" for the purpose attribute), but not itself have a defining concept.

Attribute Value

Default:

"false"

XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)

<xs:attribute default="false" name="isConcept" type="xs:boolean" use="optional"/>

isOrdered

Type:	xs:boolean, predefined
Use:	optional

Indicates whether the concept scheme is ordered or unordered. A value of "true" indicates ordered.

Attribute Value

Default:

"false"

XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)

<xs:attribute default="false" name="isOrdered" type="xs:boolean" use="optional"/>

isStructured

Type:	xs:boolean, predefined
Use:	optional

Indicates the structure of the relationships in the concept scheme. A value of "true" indicates a hierarchical structure, while a value of "false" indicates an unstructured scheme.

Attribute Value

Default:

"false"

XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)

<xs:attribute default="false" name="isStructured" type="xs:boolean" use="optional"/>

purpose

Type:	PurposeType
Use:	required

Indicates the purpose of a concept group.

Attribute Value

enumeration of xs:NMTOKEN

Enumeration:

"Administrative"	-	A concept group created for administrative purposes.
"Conceptual"	-	A concept group created for conceptual purposes.

ConceptGroupReference

Type:

r:ReferenceType, complex content

Reference to a subordinate concept group included in the concept group. A concept group can be referenced internally, from the concept scheme included in the same conceptual components module, or externally, from another scheme. This element is recursive to allow for the description of hierarchical relationships within the concept group.

ConceptReference

Type:

ConceptReferenceType, complex content

Reference to a concept included in the concept group. A concept can be referenced internally, from the concept scheme included in the same conceptual components module, or externally, from another scheme. This element is recursive to allow for the description of hierarchical relationships within the concept group.
