Instead of the labour-intensive manual categorisation into correct term pairs, partly correct term pairs and incorrect term pairs for the dictionary generation, it is possible to use the qvalues of the candidate term pairs.
MN collected the data and divided the data into partitions, planned the experimental set-up, did the manual training in ILink and the manual categorisation in IViev, analysed the data and wrote the article except for the sections 'Word alignment' in the 'Background' and 'Alignment tools' and 'Ranking and filtering candidate term pairs' in the 'Methods'.
To address this issue, we developed an original methodology that combines DIF tests, PCA and manual activities categorisation about their nature.
Our study proposes an original methodology (combining differential item functioning tests, principal component analysis and manual activities categorisation) that investigates the factors contributing to the hierarchy of manual item difficulty observed across diagnoses allowing the nature of manual ability to be better understood.
SES was derived from the employer's records and classified into three groups: high SES (managers), intermediate SES (technical) and low SES (clerical and manual), based on categorisations of the French National Statistics Institute.
Sysomos claims an 85% overall match rate between its MAP classification algorithms compared to gold standard manual (ie, human expert) categorisation.
Both the categorisation and manual were developed in collaboration with the developer (author FV) of this approach.
We derived occupational category immediately before retirement from company records and classified them into three grades: high (managers), intermediate (technical staff, line managers, and administrative associate professionals), and low (clerical and manual workers), on the basis of categorisations from the French National Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies (www.insee.fr/en).fr/en
Social class was derived from occupation using the Registrar General categorisation 'professional'managerial/technicalcal'skilledled nonmanual'skilledled manual'partlytly skilled', 'unskilled', 'armed forces', and 'never worked'.
However, the categorisation of texts containing additional information required considerable manual inspection.
The Adult Attachment Interview (AAI, George, Kaplan & Main, 1987, unpublished manual) is a semi-structured interview, consisting of 20 questions and probes, allowing categorisation of an adult individual's state of mind with regard to attachment.
