Description |
| Not Applicable |
There is no empirical support in any context. |
| No Confidence |
Empirical results are derived from alternative contexts and you are quite confident that the results do not apply to influencing VEOs. |
| Low Confidence |
Empirical results are derived from alternative contexts and you do not believe that they will necessarily apply to the VEO context, but there might be some possibility that they do apply. |
| Moderate Confidence |
Empirical results are derived from alternative contexts, but you have some degree of confidence that they apply similarly to the context of influencing VEOs. |
| High Confidence: Different Context |
Empirical results are derived from contexts involving quite different types of actors (e.g., states, firms, government agencies), but are sufficiently robust or broadly-supported across actor types that you have high confidence that they apply similarly to the context of VEOs. |
| High Confidence: Similar Context |
Empirical results concern a sufficiently closely related context (e.g. transnational criminal organizations) that you have high confidence that they will also hold in the context of influencing VEOs. |
| Direct |
At least some of the empirical results directly concern the context of influencing VEOs. |
