German term or phrase: formal plausibilisieren
This is the sentence:
"Die in den Datensätzen enthaltenen Variablen sind *formal plausibilisiert*."

Does anybody know the proper technical term in English?

The context is an empirical social research project, a panel survey. The text discusses editing of survey data for statistical analysis.

Thanks for your help! I greatly appreciate it!
