NOW AFTER UNDERSTANDING THE REPERTORIAL WINDOW AND THE CLIPBOARDS WE TODAY TAKE UP THE TASK TO UNDERSTAND GROUPING OF RUBRICS & ANALYSIS OF THE CASE..
Grouping Rubrics
RADAR allows you to group your rubrics in the clipboard in two different ways. You can combine two or more rubrics so that the remedies that appear in both are only counted once in the analysis. You can also create an intersection rubric, so only the remedies that appear in both are included. You may wish to group rubrics so you don’t miss remedies, but at the same time, not overemphasize remedies which appear in all rubrics. By not grouping, you may also give too much importance to the quality or idea behind the rubrics you are grouping.
NOTES
Rubrics are grouped using the same letter to group the rubrics you wish to analyze together. A lower case letter will create acombination group, which will include all the remedies found in both rubrics. By creating this type of grouping, you are assuring that the remedies that appear in more than one rubric aren’t considered twice in the clipboard analysis. An upper case letter will create anintersection group. When you create this type of group, you are only including the remedies in the analysis that appear in all the rubrics that you have grouped together.
NOTE
When grouping rubrics, for either an intersection or combination grouping, all rubrics must be entered with the same intensity.
Type +3a>2. (Be sure to use a lower case a.)
Press Enter.
Open Clipboard 2. Notice the intensity level on the right column is 3a.
Close the symptom clipboard.
Grouping Rubrics with Cross References
RADAR includes cross references to rubrics with similar meanings. These are located throughout the entire Synthesis. Sometimes the meanings of these rubrics are so similar, that it is hard to distinguish and determine which one should be used. So rather than leave out a remedy that might be in one, but not another, you may wish to create a group which will include all the similar rubrics and remedies, but not over emphasize remedies which appear in all the rubrics.
NOTES
To view a cross reference:
1.
Double click the cross reference word or arrow. The screen jumps to display the rubric represented by the cross reference.
2.
To return to the original rubric, find the cross reference in the current rubric. If the cross reference is not available (in most cases it is), use the Quick Command dialog box to return to the original rubric.
Type Mi.
Press Enter.
Type Li.
Press Enter.
Press Enter again to go to the Mind, Liar rubric in the Repertory Window.
Type Alt + O to open the Options Menu.
Type E for Repertory Window. The Repertory Window Options dialog box appears.
In the Remedies section choose Show Number and Remedies (Alt + r).
In the Authors section choose Show Authors (Alt +a) , Show Kent (Alt + k), Show Kl2 (Alt + w) and Show Author Notes (Alt + n).
Click Save or press Alt + S to save the changes to the default. You are back in the Repertory Window. Notice the Author References.
Double click the Deceitful cross reference. The Mind, Deceitful rubric is displayed.
Double click the Dishonest cross reference. The Mind, Dishonest rubric is displayed.
Double click the Liar cross reference. The Mind, Liar rubric is displayed.
If you wish to group multiple rubrics which have similar meanings, you can use the cross references, rather than going to each rubric. Use the method for selecting multiple items. Your screen will look similar to the following:
NOTES
Type +2>3. Press Enter.
Open clipboard 3. Notice that RADAR automatically combines the rubrics with a lower case b.
Deselect the highlighted cross references by clicking a different rubric, or if necessary, holding down the Ctrl key and clicking each of them.
If you later find a remedy which you would like to include with a group created earlier, add it with the same group letter and the same intensity. You can put them into a different clipboard, as long as they are the same intensity and same group. But it is best to put them in the same clipboard. If you select two or more rubrics to group in a clipboard, the intensity will automatically be changed so all rubrics have the same intensity as the highest intensity of the selected rubrics. So if you select three rubrics, two with intensity 2 and one with intensity 3, all of the rubrics will change to intensity 3 if you change them all at one time.
To group the rubrics after they are in the clipboard:
1.
Open the clipboard which contains the rubrics you wish to combine.
2.
Select the rubrics you wish to combine using Ctrl + click, or Ctrl + A to select them all.
NOTES
3.
With the mouse over the selected rubrics, press the right mouse button. -or- On the keyboard, press Ctrl+Enter. A pop-up menu appears.
4.
Select Combined Rubrics/Groups. The Combine/Group Rubrics dialog box appears.
5.
If you wish to create a group identified by a common upper or lower case letter, choose Add the selected symptoms to a group. You can either create a new group or add the rubrics to an existing group.
6.
If you wish to create a brand new rubric, choose Create a New Symptom combining the remedies of the selected symptoms. You can choose the suggested name for the new rubric or you can enter your own name for the new rubric.
7.
If you wish to delete the original rubrics from the clipboard, keeping only the new, combination rubric, click Delete the original rubrics.
8.
Press Enter or click OK.
NOTES
Open the clipboard which contains the rubrics Fear of High Places and Fear of Water.
Press Ctrl + A to select all the rubrics.
Press Ctrl + Enter.
Create a group with letter d.
Press Enter. Notice the grouping has changed in the Symptom Clipboard.
Display the current clipboard.
Hold the Ctrl key and click the following rubrics: MIND – MILDNESS MIND - QUIET disposition MIND - TIMIDITY – bashful
Press Ctrl + Enter.
Press Enter to accept the default name.
Noticed the new rubric at the bottom of the list in the clipboard and the old rubrics with an intensity of zero.
Analyzing the Case
Once you have placed the symptoms or rubrics into the clipboard, you can analyze the information in a variety of different ways. You can also set Preferences for analyzing the data, such as specifying which clipboards to include, whether to include polychrests, considering intensity, etc.
Setting the Analysis Strategy
RADAR provides a variety of ways to analyze data. These methods are described briefly in this section. You can make your selections from the Investigation Window or through the Options, Analysis Dialog box.
The Options Analysis dialog box is broken into sections. The Display Preferences allows you to change the way the screen appears. The Analysis Preferences section allows you
NOTES
to choose how the data will be analyzed. This can also be changed directly in the Investigation Screen. It also allows you to specify how many polychrests to exclude in your analysis. You may wish to do this if you know it is definitely not one of the top 50 remedies. A polychrest is determined by how well represented the remedy is in the repertory. You can also exclude a specified number of small remedies from your analysis. Finally, the Combined Analysis Preferences section allows you to place emphasis on more than one strategy.
To set analysis preferences:
1.
From Options menu, choose Analysis Preferences (Alt + o, a). The Analysis Preferences window appears.
2.
Make the desired changes.
3.
Click OK -or- Press Enter.
From the Options menu, choose Analysis Preferences.
Follow along as your instructor describes each section.
Place a check in the Consider Intensity box, if necessary.
Click OK.
