Within psychology, it is often necessary to analyze qualitative data, such as interview data, in terms of the multivariate analysis framework. Many analytical methods have been developed for qualitative data; representative among them is the quantification theory that has been theoretically systematized by Chikio Hayashi. Within quantification theory, type III is a method of simultaneous multipurpose classification, but it is rarely utilized and is often misunderstood. This paper first outlines the mathematical distinctions of type III quantification theory and then summarizes the points to keep in mind, illustrating with some applications for psychological research.
