List of codes used for subject assignment

Codes used for subject assignment, with Stata used to apply subject in the following order

For each IEA title (agreement name), Stata code searches for each of the following keywords in the order below, assigning the keyword to a subj_terms variable and the corresponding Subject category to a subj_codes variable. Additional keywords found in the same IEA title are also added to the subj_terms variable, and the corresponding Subject category to the subj_codes variable unless that IEA has already been assigned that Subject category. This leads to many IEA’s subj_terms and subj_codes variables having multiple Keywords and Subject categories.

  • Many Keywords are truncated, capturing titles that contain any variant of the term
  • The “&” symbol in a Keyword is used to search for multi-word phrases in titles
  • Title searches were done in the order below, with iterative verification to ensure that both Keyword terms and the sequencing of their assignment led to appropriate assignment of values to the subj_term, subj_codes, and subj_code variables
