A method for analyzing sociometric information using a modified mutual choice sociomatrix is presented. Replication of individuals is permitted in this connection matrix, enabling a person to be placed in proximity to all subgroups to which he belongs. As a result, the octopus-like configurations which often appear in a sociomatrix and confound clique detection do not occur. The connection matrix developed by this routine can be easily transformed into a sociogram, and rules governing this conversion are presented. Finally, a computer program which constructs the matrix directly from socio-metric data is described.
