normative
Definition
Conforming to a standard of correctness through prescribed norms, rules, or recommendations, as opposed to mere description or statement of facts; evaluative, not descriptive. For example, normative data is collected not just to describe ("What is this?") but to understand ("What is going on?") the underlying phenomenon.
