ABSTRACT:
One of the most interesting developments in psychology in recent years has been the
introduction of computers into the research process. Not only have computers been
used (of course) for (e.g.) studies of perception (etc.), but they have also enabled the
development of new methods of analysis. One way that computers have impacted on
the research process is via the availability of database programs for the management
of large electronic databases. Most people are aware, of course, of the existence of
SPSS for quantitative data, but increasingly qualitative databases (such as NVivo,
NuDIST and Ethnograph) are also available. A question that has obviously arisen is,
how are these databases to be organised? We suggest that a new science of Taxonomy Theory (TT) can provide answers to these questions. Methods and theories of this new subject are discussed.
