Initial states of the performance of an operational experiment and the resulting differences in the performance of the measure (qualities)
| 1. | The performance of the measure is vulnerable, as it is not known whether contact will be established and productive communication will take place | The performance of the measure is robust, as communication between the parties is already taking place |
| 2. | Need to create additional conditions (situation) to make contact | No additional conditions (situation) need to be created as contact has already been established |
| 3. | The identity of the subject may not be known (only the phone number or username of the person on the social portal or messenger application, etc.) | The identity of the subject has (usually) been established |
| 4. | The moment of acceptance of the measure may merge with the moment of contact, as the institution must have already carried out certain actions leading to the contact (e.g. initiation of correspondence) in order to verify the reliability of the information (phone number, username, etc. matching what was reported) | – |
| 5. | The potential performer of the measure can be both an official of the institution who will act within the legend and a source of information to the institution | The potential performer of the measure is the source of the information to the institution (undercover assistant, occasional contact, or person who has made an appeal to the institution) |
