Additional Contextual Information:

  • Terms such ‘clicks’, ‘page views’, or ‘visitors’ are often used as measures of Moore’s Level 1, but these only provide value when they are fully defined in keeping with the steps of the Participation Funnel. As such, the standardized terms defined in the preceding pages provide a far more accurate picture of what has occurred.
  • As a best practice, counts that are used to describe Moore’s Level 1 should be identified as ‘unique’ counts or ‘total’ counts; are often analyzed by profession, specialty, average years in practice, or other relevant demographic variables; and, are often analyzed over the course of an activity and presented as trends.
