modelmæssigt

Modelmæssigt is a Danish adverbial/adjectival form meaning "in terms of a model" or "model-wise." It is formed from the noun model and the relational suffix -mæssig, which marks manner, relation or perspective; the -t ending appears in neuter forms and in many adverbial uses. The word is used to indicate that a statement, comparison or judgment is made with respect to a model, modelling approach or conceptual framework.

In usage, modelmæssigt commonly appears in academic and technical contexts (for example statistics, simulations, economics and scientific modelling) to qualify conclusions or assumptions: "Modelmæssigt set stemmer resultaterne overens" ("Model-wise, the results are consistent"). It may also be used more loosely to contrast different modelling choices or to single out model-specific implications: "Modelmæssigt kan dette forklares ved antagelsen om..." ("From a modelling perspective this can be explained by the assumption that...").

Grammatically, modelmæssigt functions both as an adverb and as the neuter singular form of the adjective modelmæssig; agreement with gender and definiteness follows standard Danish morphology. Synonymous or related expressions include "i modelhenseende," "set fra et modelperspektiv," and broader qualifiers like "teoretisk" or "begrebsmæssigt." Translation equivalents in English include "model-wise," "from a modelling perspective," and "in terms of the model."
