Under the principles discussed in "A Sample Court Case," United States v. Jones, the court is most likely to rule that the officers' installation of the device was not a search because the officers did not obtain a warrant.

ANSWER: OPERATIONALIZE the variable.
EXPLANATION:
OPERATIONALIZATION refers to the process where by specific variable are defined and measured based on their function in a study/experiment.
However, to operationalize a variable in a study, a paradigm (theoretical framework) is used by researcher to create a concept through the process of conceptualization.
Definitions are made to back up the study, in other to remove any error or any doubt of the readers during accessing the study.
Thus, based on Jim's study. He defined the frequency and the intensity of the mood swings (as the two variables) for better understanding by the individuals.
