Meaning 'action that is harder or more far-reaching on a scale of measurement of some kind,' 'severity' can only be precisely determined within its context of use. For example, the severity of a teacher's response to student-plagiarism can be determined relative to other teachers' responses or, in a more absolute (yet still contextual) way, to the official response dictated by the standards of the school or school-system involved.
