Although these authors phrase (page 257) their formal definition of the three classes in terms of the value of α, the quantum mechanical parameter that measures electron delocalization between the two metal ions involved, they also note (page 259, ff.) that the more "operational" definition given here is fully equivalent to that more theoretical definition.
