builds GitHub last commit License: GPL v3 DOI

Cognitive Mapping (CM) is a method specifically designed to study belief systems as espoused by individuals or organisations and has several advantages over other methods. The goal of cognitivemapr is to reduce the initial investment currently needed to start using the method. The functions in the package allow you to conduct a CM analysis similar to that conducted in the following publication: Van Esch, Femke A.W.J., Snellens, Jeroen F.A. (2024). ‘How to ’measure’ Ideas. Introducing the method of cognitive mapping to the domain of ideational policy studies’. Journal of European Public Policy, 31(2), 428-451. https://doi.org/10.1080/13501763.2022.2155215

Dependencies

Installing the package (above) will install the package dependencies:

  • knitr
  • readr
  • rmarkdown
  • testthat
