Spanish term or phrase: Caracter agregativo, modelo dominio-muestra

This text with which I am working deals with formative and reflective indicators. I'm not sure if this is a straight translation or if there are specific marketing words for this sentence.

#1 El enfoque formativo tiene un caracter agregativo: la escala se forma a partir de partes

#2 el modelo dominio-muestra...una escala esta constituida por una muestra de itemes que reflejan el dominio

\"When a domain sample size is

too small to make a reliable domain estimate using the direct

estimator, a decision must be made whether to produce estimates using

an alternative procedure\"

\"Utilitarian theories fail because of their aggregative character: they fail adequately to take account of the interest of individuals. Contractarian theories explicitly take note of the interest of each, but without some restriction on information would tend to reproduce an existing pattern of advantage and disadvantage. \"

12 mins confidence:

cumalitive mastery-samples model

Explanation:
The focus of training is cumulative; the scale is comprised of parts [not sure about the scale because you give no context]

The mastery-samples[or mastery-through-sample] model: a scale is made by showing samples that demonstrate mastery

"This text with which I am working deals with formative and reflective indicators."' The terms formative and reflective indicators do not make sense to me in marketing terms. I suspect formative=training and reflective=showing or demonstrate, hard to tell without more context

additive nature, domain-sample model

Explanation:
This is my suggestion.

The 1st part is pretty straightforward. The 2nd one is more of a literal translation.

I used to work in marketing but it is not clear what your text refers to. Is it market research, product definition, business model?...

Saludos...

constituitive character, the domain-sample model

Explanation:
You could also say "collective character". For 'domain-sample model" see following extract from http://www.statcan.ca/english/ads/12-001-XPB/ab6-98.htm. It is ana article about different theoretical approaches to marketing:

Lehtonen and Veijanen bring together two well-known ideas, generalized regression (GREG) and pseudo maximum likelihood estimation, to develop a new methodology for estimating the population total of a categorical survey variable, given a vector of known auxiliary variables. The values of the categorical variable are modeled as realizations from a multinomial logistic and the corresponding unknown parameters are estimated through pseudo maximum likelihood. Then, the population frequencies of interest are estimated via a modified GREG estimator which uses these estimated parameters. Variance estimates of the frequencies are given through Taylor linearization, and some empirical results based on Finnish Labour Force Survey data are provided.

Casady, Dorfman and Wang consider the construction of confidence intervals for domain parameters in the case where the domain sample size is not fixed by the design. They condition on the observed domain sample size and show how, under certain assumptions about the population, conditional t-based confidence intervals can be obtained. In an empirical study using data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Compensation survey, they demonstrate that the proposed conditional intervals have better coverage probabilities than standard marginal intervals.
