Abstract

An analysis of Goodhart's law and an exploration of the conditions of its validity reveal significant analogies and differences between the measurement of physical and non-physical properties, where the so-called Hawthorne effect can be interpreted as a generalized loading effect. It is an opportunity to test the feasibility and the usefulness of a shared conceptual and lexical framework of measurement across the sciences.
