Variables and Categories

In T-LAB, variables are labels used to identify and classify any corpus subset: names of features identifying subjects, texts and context types.

Every variable has two or more categories, each of them - univocally - corresponds to a coding value. For example, the "sex" variable has two categories (female and male).

In T-LAB, every text can be identified through a maximum of 50 variables.

Obviously, for each of them, the respective category must be stated, following the instructions contained in Corpus Preparation.
