Abstract

In this article, we show the common methodological process that is shared by several researches that are presented in this journal, which follow an identical objective: the construction of typologies in the sociological investigation. The investigations may be characterized by: (1) they work with a great survey of habits and conditions of life, the 1990 Barcelona Conurbation survey; (2) the analysis of a particular object of study within a multivariate reality, whose characteristics are correlated, and (3) the use of multivariate data analysis, particularly the Multiple Correspondence and the Cluster Analysis.

Keywords
