Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (2): M. C. Filgueira, Rosmu

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

@todos Sí, programación y planificación son muy acertadas.

Coincido
Neil Ashby Jan 3, 2016:
IMO, Yvonne has hit the nail on the head. "programación" fits perfectly.
"planificación, cronograma" could also work.

Either way, "periodicidad" doesn't cut the mustard.
Yvonne Becker Jan 3, 2016:
Quizás "programación"

It could be "periodicidad" as Blackmore guessed with his standard, "propuesta" of confidence 4 (does his confidence level mean anything to anyone at all? It's always 4, never supported by evidence or logic so I guess it's pretty worthless) as in "how often".
But it could quite easily be the "time and date" of each assessment relative to T0 (the start of the trial).

My guess is that it wouldn't be "periodicidad" because I don't think one would list "periodicity" in a table titled "Time and Events Table"


I'd very much like to know what MC Filgueira has to say about the question as she graded it as non-pro but didn't take the time to enlighten the rest of us with her expertise. Non-pro, in her judgement, but three v different answers and context as clear as mud.
Neil Ashby Jan 2, 2016:
Without more context it's v difficult to know, but as the asker has already rushed into a decision and shows very little regard for the glossary, so we'll probably never know.

@todos ¿Sería 'cronología' un término correcto?

programación

Te copio la entrada del diccionario de Fernando Navarro:

timing. Recomiendo evitar el anglicismo timing, cuya traducción más adecuada depende en cada caso del contexto: programación (o programación temporal), cronometraje, cronología, desarrollo cronológico, sincronización, ritmo, ritmo adecuado, hora, momento, momento adecuado, situación correcta en el tiempo, coordinación, coordinación neuromuscular, etc.; en América se ve ya con relativa frecuencia la forma ‘calendarización’.
