This study reports the results of a series of experiments i~l the techniques of automatic document classifications. Two different classification schedules are co~J~pared along with two methods of automatically classifying documents into categories. It is concluded that., while thet'e is no significant difference in the predictive efficiency between the Bayesian and the Factor Score methods, automatic document classification is enhanced by the use of a factor-analytically-derived classification schedule. Appro×imately 55 percent of the documer~ts were automatie~dly and correctly classified.
