The absolute Value of a quantifiable Attribute of an item is determined by adding up the values for the Attribute of the individuals or parts that make up the item. The item is not expressed as a separate constituent but it is presupposed by the concept of Attribute. Alternatively, the Numbers form an implicit set whose sum is the Value associated with the set. In some cases what is reported is just the cardinality of the individuals that make up the item so that in effect the Value is a count. In other cases the identity of the Attribute can only be inferred from the Value. There is no cognizer on the scene in this frame. Instead, the frame focuses on the relationship between the Attribute or Numbers and the Value, which is stable and unchanging regardless of who performs the calculation.
