Dear Korneyev Alexi,
I've compared grids when the elements are the same (supplied) but the elicited
constructs are different.
I don't see any problem in this because what I was trying to understand was the
language people used to describe their experiences about a given domain of
interest......... when I've got enough interviews, then I can see if there are
any emerging constructs from that sample pool. Quite interesting stuff.
good luck,
robert

Dear colleagues!

In my research work I have faced necessity of comparison of repertory grids. The
comparison of grids with the both elements and constructs in common does not
make a problem. The procedure is well described in "A manual for repertory grid
technique" by Fay Fransella and Don Bannister (I have a Russian translation of
this book, 1977). But I don.t know how to compare two grids, if, for example,
constructs are different!
In the same book I have found some information: "Slater has developed a lot of
methods of comparison of two grids with various elements or various constructs".
Then there is a reference to Slater.s .The Measurement of Intrapersonal Space by
Grid Technique..
Unfortunately, this book is not present even in our national library.
I shall be very grateful if somebody helps me to find any information on methods
and features of comparison of repertory grids with only one thing in common -
either elements or constructs.
