A limit on what population, time window, or category of activity a statistic actually describes, such as the age threshold, the internet-crime category limit, or the self-reported nature of dollar figures in the IC3 Elder Fraud Report. A statistic quoted without its scope boundary can misrepresent the source, even when the underlying number is copied correctly.
