Synopsis

This book establishes the historical foundations of research on statistical association techniques for mechanised documentation. The author examines the dualistic philosophical model employed by the author, its roots in both psychology and linguistics, and the way in which it draws from diverse disciplines. The author also considers the profound influence of digital computer technology on the field and how computational capabilities have advanced. The author then explores the way in which statistical methods have been instrumental in discovering provocative regularities in data, before going on to summarise the evolution of content analysis and its application to political communication. The author also discusses the crucial role of contingency methods and the way in which they are anchored in association principles. The author concludes by discussing the synthesis of ideas from diverse disciplines and the way in which this synthesis has advanced the field of statistical association techniques for mechanised documentation.
