Clearly choices of reference frames are of essentialimportance in science. But most researchers incognitive and cultural processes have held lowerexpectations for the results of their work than forthe work of the "physical" scientist. Several researchers (Drs. Joseph Woelfel, GeorgeBarnett, Jim Gillham, Edward Fink et al.) havedeveloped a series of procedures (usually called TheGalileo System TM) which standardize social sciencemethodology in a way consistent with physicalpractice. This book examines that comparison processand extends it to types of comparison not easilyfeasible with existing Multidimensional Scaling.This book also demonstrates the solution to theproblem of comparing datasets with different objectsor concepts. In this book, a software tool named CRDConverter is created and treated as a juncturebetween Galileo and CATPAC that is a self-organizingartificial neural network computer program foranalyzing text. With an example of comparison ofusers perceptions and online legalpolicies, this book provides a model of theprocedures to develop a sound & well-rounded onlinelegal policy which maps more precisely on usersperception.
