Target lemma: benefit
Target surface form: benefits
Context:
The study is based on 195 personal interviews with senior officials of the social partners as representatives of national level peak organisations in fifteen European countries. As important industrial sectors, the metal industry and the banking sector were also included. Key speakers at the social exclusion conference were (left to right) Cristina Louro, Employment, Industrial Relations and Social Affairs Directorate, European Commission Fernando Gomes, a high degree of Committee of the Regions Barbara Weiler, Member of the European Parliament José Maria Gil-Robles, Vice-President, European Parliament and John Carroll, Economic and Social Committee. Case Studies Each national report contains a portfolio of between 25 and 30 initiatives which best present policies and practices to improve the recruitment, training and development of ageing workers in both the work place and the community. For each country, two or three initiatives have been selected for further in depth case study. These case studies analysed the background of the initiatives, their impact on employment patterns and work organisations and assessed the <t>benefits</t> and problems of the initiative. Visits and interviews with key personnel were also undertaken.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "benefits" in the context: "assessed the benefits and problems of the initiative."
This means the advantages or positive outcomes of the initiative.
Sense 1: financial assistance in time of need.
Sense 2: something that aids or promotes well-being; for the benefit of all. (welfare)
Sense 3: a performance to raise money for a charitable cause.
"Benefits" here means the positive effects or advantages of the initiative, which aligns best with sense 2 "something that aids or promotes well-being" (in a broad sense, it's the positive impact). Let's see if there's a better fit. Sense 2's synonyms include "welfare", and examples include "for the benefit of all". In the context of "benefits and problems of the initiative", it refers to the positive aspects or advantages. WordNet sense 2 might be the closest.
Wait, "benefit" as in "advantage"?
Let's check the senses again.
1. financial assistance in time of need
2. something that aids or promotes well-being
3. a performance to raise money for a charitable cause
None of these explicitly say "advantage", but sense 2 is "something that aids or promotes well-being". Could it be 2?
Is there another sense of "benefit"?
WordNet noun senses for benefit:
1. financial assistance in time of need
2. something that aids or promotes well-being; "for the benefit of all"
3. a performance to raise money for a charitable cause
Let me check if there is an "advantage" sense.
Wait, maybe I should select 2. "Benefits" of an initiative refers to the positive outcomes, which aids or promotes well-being.
Let me review sense 2 again. definition=something that aids or promotes well-being | synonyms=welfare.
"assessed the benefits and problems of the initiative" -> assessing what aids or promotes well-being vs problems.
Is there a chance "benefit%1:11:00::" exists? "benefit%1:11:00::" definition="something that aids or promotes well-being" - wait, I only have 3 senses.
Let's look closely at sense 2.
Yes, "something that aids or promotes well-being" is often used for the positive aspects or advantages.
I'll choose 2.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "problems" in the context: "assessed the benefits and problems of the initiative."

The context discusses case studies that analyzed initiatives, their impact, and assessed the benefits and problems of the initiative.

Here, "problems" refers to difficulties or issues encountered with the initiative. Let's look at the senses:

1. problem%1:26:00:: - a state of difficulty that needs to be resolved | synonyms=job | examples: "she and her husband are having problems"
2. problem%1:10:00:: - a question raised for consideration or solution | examples: "our homework consisted of ten problems to solve"
3. problem%1:09:00:: - a source of difficulty | synonyms=trouble | examples: "one trouble after another delayed the job; what's the problem?"

The context is about assessing benefits and problems of an initiative. This refers to difficulties or troubles associated with the initiative - issues that arose.

Sense 1 is about "a state of difficulty that needs to be resolved" - this is about a situation that needs resolving.
Sense 3 is about "a source of difficulty" with synonym "trouble" - this fits well as the problems of the initiative are sources of difficulty/trouble.

The phrase "benefits and problems of the initiative" suggests the problems are sources of difficulty or trouble associated with the initiative, rather than questions to be solved (sense 2) or a state needing resolution (sense 1).

Actually, let me reconsider. "Problems of the initiative" - these are issues, difficulties that the initiative has or causes.

Sense 1: "a state of difficulty that needs to be resolved" - the problems here are difficulties that need attention/resolution.
Sense 3: "a source of difficulty" - the problems are sources of difficulty.

In "benefits and problems," the problems are being assessed alongside benefits. They are the negative aspects, the difficulties, the troubles associated with the initiative. This aligns well with sense 3 (a source of difficulty, synonym: trouble).

But sense 1 could also work - the problems are states of difficulty that need to be resolved.

Looking at the examples:
- Sense 1: "she and her husband are having problems" - general difficulties in a relationship
- Sense 3: "what's the problem?" - asking about the source of difficulty

The context "assessed the benefits and problems of the initiative" - the problems here are the difficulties, issues, or troubles that the initiative encountered or caused. This seems to align with sense 3 (source of difficulty, trouble) as it's about identifying what problems exist with the initiative.

Actually, I think sense 1 fits better here. The "problems" in "benefits and problems" are states of difficulty that need to be resolved - they're ongoing issues that the initiative faces. The example "she and her husband are having problems" shows problems as ongoing difficulties, which is similar to the problems an initiative might have.

Hmm, but sense 3's synonym "trouble" and the idea of "a source of difficulty" also fits well with "problems of the initiative" - the initiative has sources of difficulty.

Let me think more carefully. The sentence says they "assessed the benefits and problems of the initiative." This means they looked at what went well (benefits) and what difficulties arose (problems). The problems are the difficulties, issues, or troubles that the initiative experienced.

Sense 1: "a state of difficulty that needs to be resolved" - This emphasizes that the difficulty needs to be resolved. In the context, they're assessing the problems, not necessarily resolving them. But the problems are states of difficulty.

Sense 3: "a source of difficulty" - This is about what causes difficulty. The problems of the initiative could be seen as sources of difficulty.

I think sense 1 is the better fit because "problems" here refers to difficulties (states of difficulty) that the initiative has, similar to "she and her husband are having problems." The problems are the difficult situations or issues, not necessarily the source of those difficulties.

Actually, re-reading sense 3: "a source of difficulty" with examples "one trouble after another delayed the job; what's the problem?" - here, the problem IS the source of difficulty, the thing causing trouble. In our context, "the problems of the initiative" - the problems are the difficulties themselves, the issues that arose. This could be either sense 1 or sense 3.

But looking at the examples more carefully:
- Sense 1: "she and her husband are having problems" - problems as ongoing difficulties/states
- Sense 3: "what's the problem?" - asking about the source/cause of difficulty

In "assessed the benefits and problems of the initiative," the problems are the difficulties, the negative aspects, the issues - these are states of difficulty (sense 1) or sources of difficulty (sense 3).

I'll go with sense 1, as "problems" here most naturally refers to states of difficulty that exist with the initiative, parallel to "she and her husband are having problems."

Wait, but I should reconsider. The phrase "problems of the initiative" - are these problems that the initiative causes (sources of difficulty) or problems that the initiative has (states of difficulty)?

The context says they "assessed the benefits and problems of the initiative" - they're evaluating the initiative, looking at both its positive aspects (benefits) and its negative aspects (problems). The problems are the difficulties, issues, or troubles associated with the initiative.

I think this is closer to sense 1 (a state of difficulty) because the problems are the difficult situations or issues that exist, not necessarily the source of those difficulties. But sense 3 (a source of difficulty, trouble) could also apply.

Let me look at this differently. In WordNet:
- Sense 1 (problem%1:26:00::) is in the cognitive domain (26), about a state of difficulty
- Sense 3 (problem%1:09:00::) is in the psychological domain (09), about a source of difficulty/trouble

The context is about practical, real-world difficulties with an initiative, not psychological states. But the WordNet domain numbers don't always map cleanly to real-world categories.

Actually, looking at this again:
- Sense 1: "a state of difficulty that needs to be resolved" - This is about a situation/state that is difficult and needs resolution
- Sense 3: "a source of difficulty" with synonym "trouble" - This is about something that causes difficulty

In "assessed the benefits and problems of the initiative," the problems are the difficulties/issues that the initiative has or faces. These are states of difficulty (sense 1) or could be seen as sources of difficulty (sense 3).

I think the most natural reading is that the "problems" are difficulties that need to be addressed/resolved, which aligns with sense 1. The initiative has problems (states of difficulty) that need to be resolved, and the case studies assessed these problems.

I'll go with sense 1.

Hmm, but actually, let me reconsider one more time. "Benefits and problems" - benefits are positive outcomes/advantages, problems are negative outcomes/difficulties. The problems here are the difficulties, issues, or troubles that resulted from or are associated with the initiative.

Sense 3's synonym "trouble" and definition "a source of difficulty" seems to fit well - the problems are sources of difficulty, troubles that the initiative caused or faced.

But sense 1's "a state of difficulty that needs to be resolved" also fits - the problems are states of difficulty that need to be resolved.

I think the key distinction is:
- Sense 1: problems as states/situations of difficulty
- Sense 3: problems as sources/causes of difficulty

In "assessed the benefits and problems of the initiative," the problems are the difficulties themselves (states), not necessarily the sources of those difficulties. The initiative has problems = the initiative has states of difficulty.

I'll go with sense 1.

Actually, I realize I might be overthinking this. Let me reconsider the context more carefully.

"These case studies analysed the background of the initiatives, their impact on employment patterns and work organisations and assessed the benefits and problems of the initiative."

They assessed (evaluated) the benefits and problems. Benefits = positive aspects/outcomes. Problems = negative aspects/difficulties/issues. The problems are the difficulties, troubles, or issues associated with the initiative.

Looking at the examples again:
- Sense 1: "she and her husband are having problems" - ongoing difficulties in a relationship
- Sense 3: "what's the problem?" - what's the issue/trouble?

"Benefits and problems of the initiative" - the problems are the difficulties, issues, troubles. This could be either sense 1 or sense 3.

I think sense 1 is the better fit because:
1. The problems are states/situations of difficulty, not sources of difficulty
2. The example "she and her husband are having problems" is closer to "the initiative has problems" - both describe ongoing difficulties
3. Sense 1 emphasizes that the difficulty needs to be resolved, which aligns with the idea of assessing problems to address them

Final answer: sense 1.

Looking at the context, "Visits and interviews with key personnel were also undertaken" describes research-related visits conducted as part of case studies. These are general visits to people and places for a short time as part of an investigative process—not medical/professional consultations (senses 2, 4), not official inspections (sense 3), and not temporary stays as a guest (sense 5).

{"sense_index": 1}

reasoning_content:
The context is about case studies, national reports, and professional research activities. "Visits and interviews with key personnel were also undertaken." These visits are part of a research/study process, going to see people (key personnel) in a professional context for gathering information.

Looking at the senses:
1. visit%1:04:02:: - the act of going to see some person or place or thing for a short time
2. visit%1:14:00:: - a meeting arranged by the visitor to see someone (such as a doctor or lawyer) for treatment or advice
3. visit%1:04:01:: - the act of visiting in an official capacity (as for an inspection)
4. visit%1:04:00:: - the act of going to see some person in a professional capacity
5. visit%1:04:03:: - a temporary stay (e.g., as a guest)

The context involves visiting key personnel as part of research/case studies. These are professional visits to gather information. Sense 4 seems most appropriate - "the act of going to see some person in a professional capacity." The researchers are visiting key personnel professionally to conduct interviews and gather information for their case studies.

Wait, but sense 4's example is "a visit to the dentist" - which suggests a visit to a professional (like a doctor). Here, the visitors are professionals visiting key personnel, not visiting a professional for their professional services.

Let me reconsider. Sense 1 is more general - "the act of going to see some person or place or thing for a short time." This could apply to researchers visiting sites or people for their case studies.

Sense 3 is about official capacity for inspection - not quite right, these are research visits.

Sense 4 - "going to see some person in a professional capacity" - this could mean the visitor is acting in a professional capacity, going to see someone. The researchers are professionals conducting case studies, so their visits are in a professional capacity.

Actually, re-reading sense 4: "the act of going to see some person in a professional capacity" with example "a visit to the dentist." This seems to mean visiting someone who is in a professional capacity (like a dentist, doctor). The example suggests the professional is the person being visited, not the visitor.

But in our context, the "key personnel" are professionals being visited by researchers. So sense 4 could still apply - visiting people in their professional capacity.

However, sense 1 is the most general and could also apply. The visits are to see people/places for a short time as part of research.

I think sense 1 is the best fit. The visits are general visits to sites and people as part of the case study research. They're not specifically to professionals for treatment/advice (sense 2, 4), not official inspections (sense 3), and not temporary stays as guests (sense 5).

Actually, let me reconsider sense 4 again. The context says "Visits and interviews with key personnel were also undertaken." The researchers are going to see key personnel. The key personnel are being visited in their professional capacity. This aligns with sense 4: "the act of going to see some person in a professional capacity."

But the example "a visit to the dentist" suggests a specific kind of professional visit - to someone who provides a professional service to you. In our context, the researchers aren't going to the key personnel for professional services; they're going for research purposes.

I'll go with sense 1, as it's the most general and fits the context of research visits to various people and places.

Hmm, but let me think again. The context is about professional research activity - case studies, national reports, European reports. The visits are part of a professional undertaking. Sense 4 says "the act of going to see some person in a professional capacity." If we interpret "in a professional capacity" as modifying the nature of the visit (i.e., the visit is conducted in a professional capacity), then sense 4 fits well.

But the example "a visit to the dentist" suggests "in a professional capacity" modifies the person being visited - you visit the dentist because the dentist is operating in a professional capacity.

Given the ambiguity, I think sense 1 is the safest choice. The visits are simply going to see people/places for a short time as part of research.

Wait, I should consider the broader context more carefully. This appears to be from a European Commission or similar institutional report. The "visits" are professional site visits conducted as part of case study research.

Sense 3: "the act of visiting in an official capacity (as for an inspection)" - These are official visits as part of a structured research project, but they're not inspections per se.

Sense 4: "the act of going to see some person in a professional capacity" - The visits are to key personnel, who are professionals, and the visits themselves are professional in nature.

I think I'll go with sense 1 as the best general fit. The visits are simply going to see people and places for a short time as part of the research process.

Actually, on further reflection, sense 4 seems quite appropriate. The researchers are visiting key personnel in a professional capacity - conducting professional research visits. The example "a visit to the dentist" is just one instance; the definition is broader - "going to see some person in a professional capacity." The key personnel are being seen in their professional capacity.

Let me make a final decision. The context describes professional research activity where visits to key personnel are undertaken as part of case studies. Sense 4 - "the act of going to see some person in a professional capacity" - captures the professional nature of these visits. The researchers are visiting people (key personnel) in a professional context.

I'll go with sense 4.

No wait, let me reconsider one more time. Sense 4's definition says "going to see some person in a professional capacity." The example is "a visit to the dentist." This strongly suggests the meaning is about visiting a professional (like a doctor, dentist, lawyer) for their professional services. In our context, the researchers aren't visiting key personnel for professional services; they're visiting them to gather research data.

Sense 1 - "the act of going to see some person or place or thing for a short time" - is more general and fits better. The researchers are going to see key personnel for a short time as part of their research.

I'll go with sense 1.

Hmm, but actually these visits could be to organizations, workplaces, etc. - not just people. Sense 1 mentions "some person or place or thing" which is broader. The context mentions "Visits and interviews with key personnel" - the visits could be to workplaces, organizations, etc., and the interviews are with key personnel.

I'm now quite confident in sense 1. It's the most general and fits the context of research visits to various people and places.

Final answer: sense 1.

Sense 2 is "a conference (usually with someone important)" with synonyms like consultation, audience. This seems more formal and refers to a meeting with someone important.

In this context, "interviews with key personnel" refers to gathering information through questioning, which fits sense 1 better. The example "my interviews with teenagers revealed a weakening of religious bonds" is very similar in structure to "interviews with key personnel were also undertaken."

reasoning_content:
The target word is "national" in the context: "These national studies will form the basis of a European report which synthesises overall practices."

The phrase "national studies" refers to studies conducted at the level of a nation/country (as opposed to the European level). The context discusses "national report" containing initiatives, and for each country, initiatives are selected. These "national studies" are studies belonging to or relating to individual nations/countries.

Looking at the senses:
1. of or relating to or belonging to a nation or country - "national hero; national anthem"
2. limited to or in the interests of a particular nation - "national interests; isolationism is a strictly national policy"
3. concerned with or applicable to or belonging to an entire nation or country - "the national government; national elections"
5. inside the country - synonyms domestic, internal

The studies are per-country studies. They are studies that relate to or belong to a nation. Sense 1 seems most general and fitting: "of or relating to or belonging to a nation or country". The studies belong to/relate to individual nations.

Sense 2 is about being limited to or in the interests of a particular nation, which has a more political/isolationist connotation.
Sense 3 is about being applicable to an entire nation, like national government or elections.
Sense 5 (domestic/internal) is about inside the country vs outside.

Here, "national studies" means studies at the national level (per country), which will be synthesized into a European report. This is about belonging to or relating to a nation. Sense 1 seems best.

Actually, let me reconsider. The context mentions "Each national report contains a portfolio..." and "These national studies will form the basis of a European report". The national studies/reports are reports done for each nation. So they are studies of or belonging to a nation. Sense 1 fits well: "of or relating to or belonging to a nation or country".

Sense 3 "concerned with or applicable to or belonging to an entire nation or country" could also fit, but the examples (national government, national elections) suggest things that apply to the whole nation as a governing/applicability concept. Here it's more about the studies belonging to/relating to each country.

I think sense 1 is the best fit.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "studies" in the context: "These national studies will form the basis of a European report which synthesises overall practices."

Looking at the context, "studies" refers to written documents/reports about national initiatives. The text mentions "Case Studies", "national report", "casebook of initiatives", and these "studies" will form the basis of a European report. They are described as analyses of initiatives, their impact, etc.

Sense 3 (study%1:10:00::) - "a written document describing the findings of some individual or group" with synonyms "report, written report" and example "this accords with the recent study by Hill and Dale" - fits best.

These national studies are documents that contain findings from analyzing initiatives. They will form the basis of a European report. So they are written reports/documents.

Sense 1 (survey) - "a detailed critical inspection" - could be considered, but the studies here are tangible outputs that "will form the basis of a European report" and "will be published." This suggests they are written documents.

Sense 3 is the best fit.

The target word is "form" in the context: "These national studies will form the basis of a European report which synthesises overall practices."

Here, "form the basis of" means to constitute or serve as the basis of. The studies will compose/represent the basis of a European report.

Looking at the senses:
1. create (as an entity) - organize/organise - "social groups form everywhere; They formed a company"
2. to compose or represent - constitute, make - "This wall forms the background of the stage setting; The branches made a roof"
3. develop into a distinctive entity - take form, take shape, spring
4. give shape or form to - shape
5. make something, usually for a specific function - shape, work, mold, mould, forge
6. establish or impress firmly in the mind - imprint
7. assume a form or shape

Sense 2 fits best: "to compose or represent" with synonyms "constitute, make". The example "This wall forms the background of the stage setting" is very similar to "These national studies will form the basis of a European report." Both involve something serving as or constituting a foundational element.

The answer is sense 2.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "basis" in the sentence: "These national studies will form the basis of a European report which synthesises overall practices."

Here, "basis" means the foundation or fundamental starting point for the European report. The studies will serve as the foundation upon which the report is built.

Let's look at the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=basis%1:24:00:: | definition=a relation that provides the foundation for something | synonyms=footing, ground | examples=they were on a friendly footing; he worked on an interim basis
   - This is more about a relational footing, like "on a friendly basis" or "on an interim basis." It doesn't quite fit "form the basis of a report."

2. sense_key=basis%1:09:00:: | definition=the fundamental assumptions from which something is begun or developed or calculated or explained | synonyms=base, foundation, fundament, groundwork, cornerstone | examples=the whole argument rested on a basis of conjecture
   - This fits well. The studies form the foundation from which the European report is developed. The report is built upon these studies.

3. sense_key=basis%1:24:01:: | definition=the most important or necessary part of something | synonyms=base | examples=the basis of this drink is orange juice
   - This is more about the main ingredient or constituent part of something, like the basis of a drink being orange juice.

The context is about studies forming the foundation/foundation for a report. Sense 2 fits best - the studies are the fundamental material from which the report is developed.

The answer is sense_index 2.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "overall" in the context: "These national studies will form the basis of a European report which synthesises overall practices."

Let me analyze the two candidate senses:

1. "involving only main features" - example: "the overall pattern of his life"
2. "including everything" - example: "the overall cost"

In the context, "overall practices" refers to synthesizing practices from all the national studies into a European report. The report synthesizes the practices in a comprehensive way, bringing together everything from the various national studies.

The phrase "synthesises overall practices" suggests bringing together all the practices from different countries into one comprehensive view. This aligns with sense 2 - "including everything."

Sense 1 "involving only main features" would suggest a more summary or high-level view that doesn't include details. While a synthesis does involve summarizing, the word "overall" here seems to modify "practices" to mean the comprehensive set of practices across all nations.

Actually, let me reconsider. "Overall practices" could mean:
- The general/main practices (sense 1)
- All the practices collectively (sense 2)

The context says the report "synthesises overall practices" - this means it brings together all the practices from the national studies. The "overall" here means comprehensive, including everything from all the national reports.

Sense 2 "including everything" seems more appropriate here.

reasoning_content:
The target word "practices" appears in the context: "These national studies will form the basis of a European report which synthesises overall practices."

The context is about national reports containing portfolios of initiatives presenting "policies and practices to improve the recruitment, training and development of ageing workers." The report synthesizes overall "practices" - referring to the customary ways of operation or behavior in different countries regarding employment of ageing workers.

Sense 1: "a customary way of operation or behavior" with synonyms=pattern - this fits well. The practices refer to established ways of doing things (policies and practices) across different countries.

Sense 3: "translating an idea into action" with synonym=praxis - this could also be considered, as the practices are about implementing initiatives.

Sense 5: "knowledge of how something is usually done" - this is more about knowledge/awareness of customs rather than the customs themselves.

Looking at the broader context: "policies and practices to improve the recruitment, training and development of ageing workers" - these are established behaviors/operations (practices as patterns of behavior in workplaces and communities).

The report "synthesises overall practices" - it's bringing together the various customary ways of operation across different countries.

Sense 1 seems the best fit - "a customary way of operation or behavior" with the synonym "pattern." The practices here are the established methods and approaches used in different countries.

The context is about a report and a casebook being published in 1996. The sentence says "The report and a casebook of initiatives will be published in 1996".

This is about preparing and issuing a document (report and casebook) for public distribution. The organization (the Foundation) is preparing to issue these documents.

Sense 1: "put into print" - synonyms: print - examples about newspapers publishing news
Sense 2: "prepare and issue for public distribution or sale" - synonyms: bring out, put out, issue, release - examples: publish a magazine or newspaper
Sense 3: "have (one's written work) issued for publication" - synonyms: write - examples about authors publishing books

The context here is about an institution/organization preparing and issuing a report and casebook for public distribution. This fits sense 2 best - "prepare and issue for public distribution or sale." The report and casebook are being prepared and will be issued for public distribution.

Sense 3 is more about an author having their written work issued - focused on the author's writing career. Sense 1 is specifically about putting into print (like newspaper printing). Sense 2 is about preparing and issuing for public distribution or sale, which fits the context of an organization releasing a report.

The answer is sense 2.

Sense 3: a discussion among participants who have an agreed (serious) topic

The context is about a formal event where a report and casebook will be presented. This is a prearranged meeting with a formal agenda - a conference in the traditional sense. It's not a sports league, and while it involves discussion, the word "conference" here refers to the event/meeting itself rather than just the discussion. The conference is "staged" which suggests it's an organized event.

Sense 1 is the best fit.

The target word is "aims" in the context: "The Foundation aims to document the characteristics of age barriers in job recruitment and training and to analyse their causes."

Here, "aims to" means "intends to" or "proposes to." The Foundation intends/proposes to document... and analyse...

Looking at the candidate senses:
1. Point or cause to go towards - physical pointing, not applicable
2. propose or intend - "I aim to arrive at noon" - This fits perfectly. "The Foundation aims to document..." = "The Foundation intends to document..."
3. Move into a desired direction of discourse - "What are you driving at?" - Not quite
4. Specifically design a product for a certain public - Not applicable
5. Intend something to move towards a certain goal - Not quite
6. Direct a remark toward an intended goal - Not applicable
7. Have an ambitious plan or a lofty goal - "aims to document" could be seen as having a goal, but the structure "aims to [verb]" fits better with "propose or intend"

Sense 2 with example "I aim to arrive at noon" matches the pattern "aims to document" very well. The sense is "propose or intend."

Sense 7 is "have an ambitious plan or a lofty goal" with synonyms like "aspire, shoot for." This could also work, but the example "I aim to arrive at noon" in sense 2 is a closer parallel to "The Foundation aims to document..."

The key distinction: sense 2 is about proposing or intending (with the infinitive complement), while sense 7 is about having ambitious plans/goals (more aspirational). In this context, "aims to document" is about intention/purpose, which aligns with sense 2.

Let me reconsider sense 7. "The Foundation aims to document..." - this is the Foundation stating its purpose/intention. Sense 2: "propose or intend" with example "I aim to arrive at noon" - this is exactly the same construction.

I'll go with sense 2.

raw_output:
Looking at the context, "age barriers in job recruitment and training" refers to barriers based on how old a person is — that is, the length of time they have existed. This is the general concept of age as a measurable quantity of time someone has been alive, which underlies age discrimination in employment.

Sense 3 ("a time of life at which some particular qualification or power arises") is more about specific age thresholds (e.g., "school age"). Sense 5 ("a late time of life") is specifically about old age. The context here is broader, referring to age as a factor in recruitment generally.

{"sense_index": 1}

reasoning_content:
The context discusses "age barriers in job recruitment and training." This refers to discrimination or barriers based on a person's age (how old they are) when applying for jobs or training. The phrase "age barriers" means barriers related to how old someone is.

Let me look at the candidate senses:

1. age%1:07:00:: - "how long something has existed" - examples: "it was replaced because of its age"
2. age%1:28:02:: - "an era of history having some distinctive feature" - examples: "we live in a litigious age"
3. age%1:28:00:: - "a time of life (usually defined in years) at which some particular qualification or power arises" - examples: "she was now of school age"
4. age%1:28:03:: - "a prolonged period of time" - examples: "we've known each other for ages"
5. age%1:28:01:: - "a late time of life" - examples: "old age is not for sissies"

In the context "age barriers in job recruitment," the word "age" refers to a person's age - how old they are. This is about the time of life or the number of years someone has lived.

Sense 1 is "how long something has existed" - this is about the duration of existence. While a person's age could be seen as "how long they have existed," this sense seems more general/objective.

Sense 3 is "a time of life (usually defined in years) at which some particular qualification or power arises" - examples like "school age." This is about specific life stages or thresholds.

Sense 5 is "a late time of life" - "old age." This is specifically about being old.

In the context of "age barriers in job recruitment," this could refer to age discrimination, which often involves both younger and older workers, but the emphasis in employment contexts is often on older workers facing barriers. However, "age barriers" is a general term that could refer to any age-related barriers.

Actually, looking more carefully, sense 1 "how long something has existed" is the most general sense of age as a measurable quantity of time someone/something has existed. When we talk about "age barriers," we're talking about barriers based on how long someone has existed (their age). This seems like the most appropriate sense.

But wait, let me reconsider. Sense 3 talks about "a time of life at which some particular qualification or power arises" - like school age, voting age, retirement age. Age barriers in recruitment could be seen as thresholds - certain ages at which you can or cannot be recruited.

Actually, I think sense 1 is the best fit. "Age barriers" means barriers based on a person's age - i.e., how long they have existed. The general concept of age as the length of time someone has been alive is what's being referenced here.

Hmm, but looking at the examples again:
- Sense 1: "it was replaced because of its age" - this is about an object's age
- Sense 3: "she was now of school age" - this is about a person's age being at a certain stage

The context is about people's age in employment. "Age barriers" refers to barriers based on a person's age. This is about the time of life, which could be sense 3.

Actually, I think sense 1 is the most general and appropriate. "Age" here means the length of time a person has existed (their age in years). "Age barriers" = barriers based on one's age (how old they are).

Let me reconsider all senses once more:

The phrase is "age barriers in job recruitment and training." This is about discrimination based on age - whether someone is too old or too young for a job. The word "age" here refers to the concept of how old someone is.

Sense 1: "how long something has existed" - This is the most general sense of age as a measure of time existed. A person's age is how long they have existed.

Sense 3: "a time of life at which some particular qualification or power arises" - This is more about specific age thresholds or stages.

Sense 5: "a late time of life" - This is specifically about old age.

I think sense 1 is the best fit because "age barriers" refers to barriers based on a person's age in general - how long they have existed - not specifically about old age or specific age thresholds.

Wait, but in employment discrimination contexts, "age barriers" or "age discrimination" typically refers to discrimination based on a person's age, and this often (though not always) refers to older workers. But the term "age" itself in "age barriers" is referring to the general concept of age.

I'll go with sense 1 - "how long something has existed" - as the best fit for "age" in "age barriers in job recruitment and training."

The target word is "barriers" in the context of "age barriers in job recruitment and training" and "removing age barriers."

This refers to conditions that make it difficult to achieve an objective (getting a job or training), not physical structures or things that maintain physical separation.

Sense 2 fits: "any condition that makes it difficult to make progress or to achieve an objective" with the example "intolerance is a barrier to understanding."

Age barriers in job recruitment are conditions that impede progress toward employment, similar to how intolerance is a barrier to understanding.

The context is: "The Foundation aims to document the characteristics of age barriers in job recruitment and training and to analyse their causes."

Here, "job" is used as a modifier in "job recruitment." The phrase "age barriers in job recruitment" refers to barriers related to recruitment for employment/jobs.

Sense 1: "the principal activity in your life that you do to earn money" (occupation, business, line of work, line) - This is the sense of "job" as an employment position or occupation. "Job recruitment" means recruitment for jobs/employment.

Sense 2: "a specific piece of work required to be done as a duty or for a specific fee" (task, chore) - This is more about a specific task.

In the phrase "job recruitment," "job" refers to employment positions - i.e., the principal activity one does to earn money. The foundation is studying age barriers in recruiting people for jobs (employment).

Sense 1 is the best fit. "Job recruitment" = recruitment for jobs/occupations.
