The elicited

What people say when asked what comes to mind.

The part

What it is

Recorded in their words rather than coded immediately, because the coding loses exactly the nuance that makes the finding useful.

Frequency across respondents is what turns individual answers into an association.

The smallest level

The attributes it carries

Each attribute is one of the framework’s shared types. What a date is, and how it is written, is defined once for the whole model — the note here says what it means in this particular place.
