Adit Sociogram

Sociometry is one of the methods of socio-psychology developed by the psychiatrist Jacob Levi Moreno (1934). He developed methods to analyse interpersonal emotive relationships within a group. His methods can be used to identify informal leaders, social rankings and isolated individuals.

Adit Sociogram is free to download for personal use and allows you to store sociometric data in a database and to graphically analyse the results. You can interact with the graphical and diagrammatic output to further your study of the data and to improve the visual impact of the results.

• Adit Sociogram was originally developed as an exercise and is proving one of our more popular program downloads. If you are studying or teaching courses that include sociometry why not give it a try?



• Our free software allows you to enter, edit and store the results of a sociometric questionnaire in the dedicated Access 97 format database (no copy of MS Access is required). Four forms of sociogram can then be generated from the data. The sociogram display screen allows you to interact - moving "nodes" about the display area to enhance the visual impact of the results. You may print the sociograms generated in full colour to any printer connected to your computer.



• For more on this subject, see "Social Networks" by John Scottand www.classroomsociometrics.com on the use of sociograms for measuring classroom interactions.



• Adit Sociogram also acts as an ActiveX exe and can be used as a "server" to store and display data generated from your own programs and databases. You are free to try this facility out with no charge (see www.adit.co.uk for further details). Should you decide to continue to use the Adit Sociogram software as a server process then a license fee is chargeable. If you have any comments, contributions or error reports then we will try to incorporate any feedback we get into the program and post the results on this site.
