For example, the subject category “ Techniques of Socialization ” ( OCM 861 ) will find passages that deal with cultural ideas about childtraining or general methods of discipline, but coding schemes need to be developed to measure dimensions of variation, such as “ degree to which corporal punishment is employed ,” “ degree to which threatening is employed ,” or “ degree to which children are praised .” It is not difficult, after a little practice, to develop ordinal scales that can allow for the coding of words into quantitative measures, and once that is done it is easy to use available software to test hypotheses, and compare, combine, and model the results.
