Non-PRO (1): writeaway
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.

policy assumptions
Naast de vraag of de resultaten van een beleidsprogramma uitsluitend aan dat programma toe te schrijven zijn (effectiviteit), moeten de evaluatieonderzoeken, voor een wetenschappelijke onderbouwing van het
uitgevoerde beleid, in staat zijn om de volgende vragen te beantwoorden: wat zijn de beleidsveronderstellingen die ten grondslag liggen aan de beleidsinterventies? Dat wil zeggen, hoe (via welke processen en gedragsmechanismen) zou een specifieke beleidsinterventie de gewenste
gedragsveranderingen bij de doelgroep tot stand moeten brengen?

Discussion
Het is beleidsveronderstellingen -> policy assumptions (or concepts, if you would) en beleidsrichtlijnen -> policy guidelines.
"Purpose and underlying policy assumptions of the guidelines."
http://www.usdoj.gov/atr/public/guidelines/horiz_book/01.htm...
In een tekst over "policy guidelines:" "Key policy elements and underlying assumptions" en verderop "The rationale for, and implementation of, these elements are based on the following assumptions" en "Develop policy guidelines for the development and promotion of public domain
information as an important international instrument promoting public access to information."
