</xs:annotation>
A maintainable module for the conceptual components of the study or group of studies. Conceptual components include the objects used to describe the concepts the study is examining, the universe (population) and sub-universes those concepts to which they are related, and the geographic structures and locations wherein those populations reside. Concepts, and ConceptualVariables (containing a concept linked to a universe) provide an abstract view of what is being measured by questions or other forms of data capture, and the variables which are used to describe the data that will be collected. Universe describes the populations (objects) about whom information is sought. GeographicStructure and GeographicLocation specify the geographical locations of those objects and the structural relationships between locations of different types, e.g. the relationship of a city to the state that contains it. In addition to the standard name, label, and description, ConceptualComponent contains ConceptSchemes, ConceptualVariableSchemes, UniverseSchemes, GeographicStructureSchemes, and GeographicLocationSchemes both in-line and by reference.

A Universe contextualizes a Unit Type by providing additional restriction characteristics. The class Universe covers both the GSIM 1.2 obects of Universe and Population, conflating them into a single class. A universe may be organized into hierarchical sub-universes. In addition to the standard name, label, and description, the universe may provide a generation code (how the universe is differentiated or split out from another universe), a definition of hierarchical sub-settings for the universe, and an attribute that indicates if the description of the universe is stated in terms of what the universe includes. DDI Lifecycle does not have a Population class as found in GSIM 1.2. It extends the definition of a Universe to include specification of time and geography in contextualizing a Unit Type. In GSIM 1.2 a Universe is a defined class of people, entities, events, or objects with no specification of time and geography, contextualizing a Unit Type. A Population refines a Universe by specifying time and/or geography.

A Unit Type is a class of objects of interest. A Unit Type is used to describe a class or group of Units based on a single characteristic with no specification of time and geography. For example, the Unit Type of "Person" groups together a set of Units based on the characteristic that they are "Persons". It concerns not only Unit Types used in dissemination, but anywhere in the statistical process. For example, using administrative data might involve the use of a fiscal unit. "Object class (ISO 11179)" is a synonym of UnitType. [GSIM 1.2]
