MDPE.14:3.2 - Select and support the conflict branch
For every branch used, state the two subjects and the relation between them.
| Question | Required answer |
|---|---|
| Which Method or Work part changed? | Name the larger Method or Work whole and the actual part relation, or do not call it a part. |
| Which Work obtains together? | Name the overlapping Work occurrences, interval, participating Agents and Systems, and results that must coexist. |
| Which scale order matters? | Name the scale variable and ordering relation. If none is stated, do not call the conflict cross-scale. |
| Which slower arrangement constrains current Work? | Name the judging, teaching, platform, repertoire, event, or institutional relation and the current Work it constrains. |
| Which representation changes the decision? | Name the represented subject, preserved and hidden distinctions, receiving use, and the decision that consumes it. |
Also state whether the basis is an observed difference, a design hypothesis, an association, or a causal contribution. The selected structural relation does not by itself carry a causal effect.
If none of these relations changes the decision, stop using this pattern and use ordinary comparison.
