The Methodology of Clustering the Thematic Dimension of Professional Communication
Abstract
The article deals with the problem of selecting the methods and principles needed for structuring the complex thematic dimension of professional communication. The use of adequate methods ensures the adequate synthesis of the knowledge fragments, while the explanatory principle makes it possible to identify essential markers (attributes) of the construct (cluster).
Rationality and adequate synthesis of basic scientific principles, concepts and methodological approaches set certain criteria for assessing the objectivity of the construct (cluster).
The construction of clusters is considered in the article to be one of the most effective ways of segmenting the diverse thematic dimension of professional communication.
The results of the analysis of “Business”, being one of the clusters of the thematic dimensions of professional communication, have been presented.
The process of clustering the thematic dimension of professional communication aims at framing certain infinity with “completeness”. The model of clustering thematic dimension offers the repertoire of restrictions and assumptions for creating adequate constructs.
