Three uses of this graphical statistical tool are as follows: (a) forming policy initiatives and making resource allocations; (b) analyzing terrorism threats and dynamics; and (c) performing structural analysis of performance data. Dimensionality analysis is compared with more commonly encountered techniques such as factor analysis, cluster analysis, and correspondence analysis, and their relative merits discussed. Data used to illustrate dimensionality analysis are drawn from the crime statistics on US cities, terrorism incidents in Israel, and performance indicators for American police departments, but the methods presented are broadly applicable to a wide variety of policing and security issues and the same principles apply to other forms of data.}, number={2}, journal={SOCIAL SCIENCE COMPUTER REVIEW}, author={Brunet, James R. and Garson, G.

 @article{garson_2003, title={Doing web-based content profile analysis - A tutorial review of TextGrab and TextQuest}, volume={21}, DOI={10.1177/0894439303251576}, abstractNote={TextQuest is a comprehensive content analysis program developed and distributed by Harald Klein, a German academic. Its TextGrab module can download most web sites into a single text file. Its RTags utility can strip html code (but not Javascript code) from the downloaded file. TextQuest can do word counts, phrase (word sequence) counts, category counts using a user-created dictionary of words and phrases that belong together; keyword-in-context concordance listings by word, phrase, or category; word pattern searches; and statistical vocabulary analysis. Although featuring the bells and whistles of commercial Windows packages, the TextQuest system is functionally efficient, and the level of e-mail technical support from the author-publisher was excellent. The central deficiency was the inability of the program to deal with scripted web pages not using conventional html coding, although a future version of the package promises to remedy this shortcoming.Content analysis can lead to findings that are interesting and of theoretical significance. It is a particularly relevant approach when the focus is on verbal images, as in the study of political culture. Various theories of political culture are associated with predictions about which verbal images should be associated with certain types of subjects, such as liberal or conservative subjects. Content profile analysis, illustrated in Figure 1, can portray verbal images in property space for purposes of testing hypotheses derived from political culture theory. Figure 1, for instance, is the profile for most used verbal images distinguishing the web site of Senator Jesse Helms from that of Senator Hillary Clinton. Verbal images of God, as one example, are a differentiating political cultural artifact for these two iconic political figures who reside at opposite ends of the political spectrum.}, number={2}, journal={Social Science Computer Review}, author={Garson, G.
