  Paradigmatic analysis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Paradigmatic analysis is the analysis of paradigms embedded in the text rather than of the surface structure ( syntax) of the text which is termed syntagmatic analysis.
Paradigmatic analysis assumes that Roman Jakobson 's description of the poetic system (1960, p.358) applies to music and that in both a "projection of the principle of equivalence from the axis of selection on to the axis of combination" occurs.
Thus paradigmatic analyses is able to base the assignment of units entirely on repetition so that "anything repeated (straight or varied) is defined as a unit, and this is true on all levels," from sections to phrases and individual sounds.

 RAUNO REMME:
The method coming under discussion is the analysis of the neutral level or, in other terms, the paradigmatic analysis of music, developed by Nicolas Ruwet and especially by Jean-Jacques Nattiez in 1960ies and 1970ies.
Paradigmatic analysis of music was born with the article by linguist Nicolas Ruwet in 1966 on the subject of medieval songs (without words; see Ex.
For this reason the term "paradigmatic analysis" is used in parallel with the denomination "the analysis of the neutral level".

After the above analysis of this tradition under the social fact paradigm, it is essential to discern what this approach imparts to the general discussion of the concept of role for the sociological discipline.
Paradigmatic Integration in Role Analysis Regardless of the paradigm one operates from, a central concept for all role theorists is the idea of role.
Example of Integration: Life Course Analysis Life course is a perspective that emphasizes the importance of the socially patterned sequence of changes in role expectations that defines the journey from life to death (Baltes and Reese 1984, and Clausen 1987).

 Paper given in Mexico
Over the past decades, research, analysis of research findings, and the systematic organization of these have been going forward hand in hand with the preparation of a much more inclusive glossary, and of a thesaurus that arranges the terms in that glossary in quasi-logical rather than alphabetic organization.
Both paradigmatic and probe operations, whether they are observed occurring in 'real life,' that is, without experimental intervention, or in the laboratory, occur in a context, a particular set of circumstances.
Operation analysis is here defined as a systematic method for the gathering of data, for the evaluation of data that have been collected, and for the ordering, categorizing, and taxonomizing of results of research on the interactions of the environment and with the individual organism.

 Semiotics for Beginners: Paradigmatic Analysis
Whereas syntagmatic analysis studies the 'surface structure' of a text, paradigmatic analysis seeks to identify the various paradigms (or pre-existing sets of signifiers) which underlie the manifest content of texts.
Paradigmatic analysis involves comparing and contrasting each of the signifiers present in the text with absent signifiers which in similar circumstances might have been chosen, and considering the significance of the choices made.
Critics of structuralist analysis note that binary oppositions need not only to be related to one another and interpreted, but also to be contextualised in terms of the social systems which give rise to texts (Buxton 1990, 12).

 AEJMC Archives -- September 2002, week 1 (#89)
Paradigmatic analysis found sets of binary oppositions between thin versus fat body images, and revealed a myth behind contemporary society, namely that a thin body equals empowerment.
In a narrative analysis of the ways in which women's magazines have covered eating disorders since 1980, Bishop (1999) found that women's magazines devoted only sporadic coverage to eating disorders, and that publishers were reluctant to show readers the end-results of overzealous dieting.
This analysis deals with how oppositions hidden in the text generate meaning, and stems from an assumption that binary oppositions are the fundamental way in which the human mind produces meaning.

 Analog: Toward Syntagmatic Analysis   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
In relation to Pike's tagmemic analysis (See Tagmeme for a brief explanation of this method for ethnographies of communication) one of the outstanding features of the expert descriptions of episodes of workplace abuse, is that all of them idenitify prototypical...
The result could be a contribution towards profiling cases of this kind, possibly for input into expert systems for the early detection of workplace abuse, similar for example, to the expert systems that have been used by the police for early detection of corruption among officers.
The complementary investigation is paradigmatic analysis of the types of events, behaviors, or objects that may fill any given "slot" identified as part of the syntagmatic sequence.

 Stef Slembrouck (1998-2004) - WHAT IS MEANT BY DISCOURSE ANALYSIS?
Coming from this end, the sentence/clause as a primary unit of analysis is dislocated irredeemably and "moving beyond the sentence" becomes a metaphor for a critique of a philological tradition in which the written has been reified as paradigmatic of language use in general.
Particularly relevant to discourse analysis is Foucault's insistence on a reversal of the subject-statement relationship: the subject has to conform to the conditions dictated by the statement before s/he can become the speaker of it (in other words, the structures of discourse prevail over human agency).
It seems to me that the historical analysis of scientific discourse, in the last resort, be subject, not to a theory of the knowing subject, but rather to a theory of discursive practice.

 Analysis of the paradigmatic structures of research on ICT integration in education
Because the main purpose in the analysis of the epistemic rhetoric of the articles was to give some background information for the further analysis of metaphorical expressions, these epistemologically unclear articles were rather left out of the analysis than trying to classify them in any category without clear evidence.
The analysis is descriptive by nature and is used in the final analysis concerning the paradigms of the research field.
This is a rhetoric analysis of texts, not an analysis of the values and interests of the researchers themselves, although we usually consider values as something we appreciate and want to have and achieve as individuals.

 CSI: Thi3
Saussure's analysis thus anticipates the hypothesis of the categorical and quantal based nature of the relationship between state of the articulators and sound produced (e.g., Stevens 1972).
Saussure's analysis of the sounds of language is concerned to establish the categorical and the contextual principles which anchor these both to the materiality of the phonic substance from which they emerge, as well as to the principles of their articulation and perception.
The analysis shows that sonants are always adductive and adsonants are sometimes adductive (for example i in the English boi, written "boy"), and sometimes abductive (for example y in the French pye, written "pied").

Paradigmatic classification of signs is referring to a set of associated signs which belong to a specific category.
In a paradigmatic analysis of a text one has to search for various patterns, such as through a structuralist approach in which one studies binary oppositions like: old-new, rich-poor, good-bad, private-public, form-content, medium-message, etc. In the case of the syntagm, the signs are combined to form something meaningful - a meaningful whole.

A paradigmatic analysis, on the other hand, illustrates themes and shows what characteristics, attributes, or abilities are viewed positively (as "heroic") and which negatively (as "villainous").
After you have determined the morphology of the narrative, identify oppositions within the characters and contexts of the story as the beginning of a "paradigmatic analysis." In a few paragraphs, discuss your analysis.
Besides some of the rather typical polarities — the good guys are young, good-looking, and "far too trusting" while the bad guys are old, hide their faces behind masks, and are given to devious plots and betrayals — some interesting comparisons emerge.

 Paradigmatic Stance of Albert Bandura
Results of this analysis reveal that Bandura's major theoretical tenets, key contentions, and psychological constructs are not only consistent with social constructivist thought but are also antagonistic toward mechanistic, positivistic, or behavioral views of human functioning.
Albert Bandura's paradigmatic evolution from the neo-behaviorist to the social constructivist paradigm is an example of the exception that proves the rule.
Information provided by an analysis of Bandura's contribution can provide professors and researchers with information that will likely result in students approaching the theory with a more open mind—a difficult task when his work has been grouped with that of others who have come to be viewed as outmoded (Robins et al., 1999).

The recent impeachment of President Clinton, coupled with the overwhelming popular majority of (polled) Americans supporting the President and not calling for his dismissal from office, is a true sign of a decadent age.
It is not surprising, though, that this support comes at a time of seemingly unbridled economic prosperity, growth, and opportunity, which is (erroneously) attributed to the President.

 Paper given in Palermo
Thus, at Indiana I developed a first-hand acquaintance with the methodology of the Skinnerian behaviorism that was later to become The Experimental Analysis of Behavior, a fuller grasp of his approach to behavior, and achieved a small background in the interbehavioral teachings of Robert Kantor.
Fresh from completing the analysis of Skinner's work, with a growing understanding of Robert Kantor, and concerned with the theoretical niceties of "stimulus," "response," "habit-strength," and even "reflex reserve," I found the research he reported remarkably parallel, both conceptually and in findings, to behaviorisms with which I was already familiar, i.e., Hull, Kantor, and Skinner.
These enabled a parallel analysis and categorization of the behavioral interactions observed as they occur "in real life," that is, outside the laboratory and without experimental manipulation.

 FQS 3(2) Bong: Debunking Myths in Qualitative Data Analysis
In the second section, I discuss the dominance of coding in qualitative data analysis and I argue that the pitfall of reifying coding as analyses can be avoided through a researcher's reflexivity and agency (self-determination) combined with a pragmatic view and the use of codes as a means and not as an end.
It provided an invaluable thematic structure for data analysis and further theorising on the impact of culture and religion on women's/human rights professionally or vocationally (where activism is voluntary and not paid as in the former) in the public realm and personally on the domestic front.
The primary texts (interview transcripts) are thus produced where reliability of method (of sampling, interviewing and analysis) and the generalisability of analyses follow through from the validity of data.

 James, Intentionality and Analysis
Consequently, they assume that one can criticize another's analysis of a phenomenon by showing that the resulting conceptual criteria includes things that the term doesn't apply to, or fails to include things to which it does.
If one treats James as trying to provide such an analysis of intentionality (i.e., as trying to provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a thought's being about an object), counterexamples to his account will be easy to find.
This analysis of the core could then be supplemented with additional remarks about how the less prototypical cases could be understood in terms of their relations to the paradigm.

In semiotics paradigmatic analysis is analysis of paradigms rather than surface structure ( syntax) as in syntagmatic analysis, often made through commutation tests, comparisons of words chosen with absent words, words of the same type or class but not chosen.
Paradigmatic analysis assumes that Roman Jakobson 's description of poetry (1960, p.358) applies to music and that in both a "projection of the principle of equivalence from the axis of selection on to the axis of combination" occurs.

 Paradigmatic ways of understanding Karl Jaspers’ ‘Socrates, Buddha, Confucius, Jesus’ - Herman J. Pietersen - The ...
We are, for instance, made aware of Confucius' lifelong ambition for political mentorship as well as the fact that he actually held high political office for a while.
Based on Jaspers' comparative philosophical analysis of the lives of Buddha, Socrates, Jesus and Confucius, an attempt was made to show how these historical figures are also different in more fundamental ways, as meta -paradigmatic exemplars.
Although Jaspers quite significantly, it is believed, refers to the four men as 'paradigmatic individuals' he never went so far as to develop a distinctive meta-framework for purposes of comparison (a fact that is surmised to be indicative of his own [subjectivist] approach to human understanding, being the originator of the 'philosophy of existence').

The paradigmatic, normative potential of industrial ecology is contrasted with its potential as an emerging "science" of sustainability
Emerging during about the past 10 years, industrial ecology is a new approach to the analysis and design of sustainable political economies (Erkman, 1997).
The paradigmatic aspect is critical to those who would argue that sustainability is fundamentally different from the emergent, politically correct notion of sustainable development and that industrial ecology can serve as a new paradigmatic metaphor.

 Chapter 5: Semiotic Analysis of Children's Toy Ads   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Semiotic analysis is a qualitative approach to (media) texts and is perhaps the most effective way to consider textual elements that are not quantifiable but never the less significant in terms of the overall ‘feel’ of an advertisement.
So, an analysis of a (media) text should also consider the ‘latent’ content in terms of the value judgements within a given cultural system and the ‘relationships’ within a structural meaning of a message.
Therefore, a semiotic analysis will, in the context of this chapter, aim to focus on those features present in an advertisement that were not quantifiable in terms of being a formal content feature, but are vital in terms of creating the overall ‘feel’.
