Semantic differential and linguistic approximation - identification of a possible common ground for research in social sciences

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Linguistic approximation is the process of transformation of mathematical objects (outputs of mathematical models) into natural language. It is a crucial step in decision support models and in fact in any formal models that are supposed to be used, understood, modified or maintained by non-mathematicians. In the paper we summarize the principles of linguistic approximation and semantic differential and point out the common goal of these two tools. We discuss the differences and the common ground of these two tools - semantic differential as a tool for the determination of connotative meaning or the assessment of attitudes and linguistic approximation as a "translation" tool between mathematics and common language. The aim of the paper is to suggest possible improvements of the two methods or a merger of the basic ideas behind them. This way we propose future research directions in the field of semantics modelling and suggest the incorporation of uncertainty in the semantic differential as a promising future research goal.
