This paper attempts to meet the challenge of defining operational definitions operationally. A definition is operational to the extent that it specifies the procedure for identifying or generating the definiendum and finds high reliability for the definition. The logical form of this definition, its gradational phrasing, the concepts of "procedure" and "reliability," and the two types of operational definitions are commented upon. The importance of reliability for scientific work is stressed. Experimental procedures for measuring the utility, the reliability, the validity, and the usage of any concepts defined are suggested and proposed as criteria for the excellence of any sociological definition
