Term and Phrase Lists

The Term and Phrase Lists report contains tables of terms and phrases found in the text after tokenization has occurred. See Figure 11.192 for an example of the Term and Phrase Lists report. The Count column in the Term List indicates the number of occurrences of the term in the corpus. The Count column in the Phrase List indicates the number of occurrences of the phrase in the corpus; the N column indicates the number of words in the phrase.

By default, the Terms List is sorted in descending count order; terms that are tied in count are sorted alphabetically. The Phrases List is sorted in descending count order; phrases that are tied in count are then sorted in descending length (N) order. Further ties in the Phrases List are sorted alphabetically. The sort order of each list can be changed to alphabetical sorting using the options in each list.

The phrases that appear in the Phrase List are determined by the settings of the Maximum Words per Phrase and Maximum Number of Phrases options in the launch window. Phrases that occur only one time in the data table do not appear in the Phrase List.

Phrases can be specified as terms at various scopes. Phrases in the Phrase List that have been specified as terms are colored based on the scope of the phrase specification. See Table 11.7. For more information about specifying phrases in different scopes, see Term Options Management Windows.

You can access options in the Term List and Phrase List tables by selecting items and then right-clicking in the left-most column of each table. You can save each table as a data table by right-clicking in the Count column of each table and selecting Make into Data Table.

Term List Pop-up Menu Options

When you right-click in the Term column of the Term List table, a pop-up menu appears with the following options:

Selects rows in the data table that contain the selected terms.

Shows the documents that contain the selected terms.

Note: By default, only the first 10,000 documents are shown. If there are more than 10,000 documents that contain a selected term, a window appears that enables you to increase this limit.

Saves an indicator column to the data table for each term selected in the Term List. The value of the indicator column for each row is 1 if the document in that row contains the term and 0 otherwise.

Saves a column formula to the data table for each term selected in the Term List. The column formula for each row evaluates to 1 if the document in that row contains the term and 0 otherwise. This is useful for new documents.
