  • All Implemented Interfaces:

    @Entity
public class Category
extends AbstractEntityAudit
implements java.lang.Comparable<Category>, java.lang.Cloneable

    CategoryScheme : Categories provide enumerated representations for concepts and are used by questions, category lists, and variables

    CodeListScheme : Code lists link a specific value with a category and are used by questions and variables

    ManagedRepresentationScheme : Reusable representations of numeric, textual datetime, scale or missing values types.

    CodeType (aka Code) A structure that links a unique value of a category to a specified category and provides information as to the location of the category within a hierarchy, whether it is discrete, represents a total for the CodeList contents, and if its sub-elements represent a comprehensive coverage of the category. The Code is identifiable, but the value within the category must also be unique within the CodeList.
