Peer reviewedOwens, William A. – Personnel Psychology, 1978
The author suggests that it is more efficient to cluster subjects on the basis of their profiles across several dimensions of significance and to seek "between" subgroup correlates, than to search for a moderator variable "within" levels of which criterion relationships may vary in nonrandom fashion.

Peer reviewedMcCain, Katherine W. – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1984
Author cocitation analysis was used to investigate changes in intellectual structure of macroeconomics over two consecutive time periods, 1972-1977 and 1978-1983. Profile analysis, nonmetric multidimensional scaling, and clustering techniques were used to create two-dimensional maps displaying changing relationships among 41 authors as perceived…

Peer reviewedPaisley, William – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1990
Discussion of researchers in the multidisciplinary field of communications focuses on a study using the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) that investigated cocitation frequencies of selected communication researchers and often-cited researchers in related fields. A factor analysis of correlations based on cocitation frequencies is among the…

The purpose of this paper is to suggest a technique of cluster analysis which is similar in aim to the Interactive Intercolumnar Correlation Analysis (IICA), though different in detail. Two methods are proposed for extracting a single bipolar factor (a "contrast compenent") directly from the initial similarities matrix. The advantages of this…

Peer reviewedRadecki, Tadeusz – Information Processing and Management, 1985
Reports research results into a methodology for determining similarity between queries characterized by Boolean search request formulations and discusses similarity measures for Boolean combinations of index terms. Rationale behind these measures is outlined, and conditions ensuring their equivalence are identified. Results of an experiment…

Peer reviewedGarland, Kathleen – Information Processing and Management, 1983
Describes method of automatic document classification in which documents classed as QA by Library of Congress classification system were clustered at six thresholds by keyword using single link technique. Automatically generated clusters were compared to Library of Congress subclasses, and partial classified hierarchy was formed. Twelve references…
