[Sigcr-l] Similar studies?

[Henrik Perfect]

Hello, 

First let me introduce myself. I'm a student of informationscience and a new subscriber to the SIGcr list. Actually I'm waiting for approval from the list administrator. 

I'm currently working on a study of a collection of photos in a specific context, which will end in a controlled vocabulary that can be used to index the photos. My plan is to use a qualitative method such as photo-elicitation to interview individuals in the specific context about their descriptions, reactions, associations etc. to a set of typical photos. I believe that this can provide buildingmaterial for designing a controlled vocabulary. 

Scince I am in the beginning of the study im currently trying to collect background material and find out what has been done before. Therefor I wonder if anyone know of similar studies that have been conducted. I will be very greatful for any hints, suggestions, questions or directions to resources, articles etc.


Best regards
