Series F develops the methodological foundations required to observe and evaluate Institutional Cognition. It designs metrics, indicators, assessment frameworks and measurement methodologies capable of transforming constitutional concepts into operational research variables. These tools support empirical research, comparative analysis, validation programmes and evidence-based governance across the entire research ecosystem.

Building upon the theoretical foundations established throughout the previous Working Papers of Research Line L01, in the study we argue that institutions should be...
