1
making things consistent
making things the same or consistent by using agreed rules.
Padrão de uso:
standardization of [something]; standardization across [teams/systems/places]
Erro comum:
Do not confuse standardization with standard: standardization is the process, while a standard is the rule or level.
Sinônimos
uniformity (emphasizes the resulting sameness more than the process.)
|
normalization (often used for making formats, data, or practices consistent; can also mean making something seem normal.)
|
harmonization (suggests aligning different systems so they work together, not necessarily making them identical.)
Antônimos
variation (emphasizes differences instead of sameness.)
|
inconsistency (refers to a lack of reliable sameness or agreement.)
|
customization (means adapting things for specific needs rather than making them uniform.)

|
codification (more formal; emphasizes putting rules into an organized written form.)

regulation (usually implies legally enforceable rules, not just agreed standards.)

statistical adjustment for comparison
changing numbers to a common scale so they can be compared.
Padrão de uso:
standardization of [scores/variables/rates]; [age/z-score] standardization
Erro comum:
In statistics, standardization may refer to scaling variables, such as converting them to z-scores; it is not just making procedures uniform.
Sinônimos
normalization (often used similarly for rescaling data, though methods may differ.)
|
scaling (broader term for changing the numerical scale of values.)
|
adjustment (broader and less specific; can involve many kinds of correction.)
Antônimos
raw data (data that has not been transformed or adjusted.)
|
unadjusted rate (a rate that has not been standardized for comparison.)

|
standard-language development (more descriptive term for the development of an accepted standard variety.)
