| Definitions |
A quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer's magnitude in respect to a related entity. Examples: height to weight; brain size to body size. These could all be children of proportionality. Proportions can be measured as ratios. Some measures may be dimensionless. Not all ratios measure proportionality, eg m/s measures velocity which is not a proportion in the sense defined above, it is a quality in its own right. |
