Topic: Classification

Classification is dividing something into groups, classes, categories, etc. This is


normally done in accordance with several criteria (standards or principles on which
judgments are based).

Example: GENDERED POWER PATTERNS


Research (Helgessen, 1990; in Wood, 2001) reveals general differences in how women
and men define and use power. Men tend to see power as finite and as something to
guard closely.
Women are more likely to regard power as unlimited and to share it freely. Another
difference is how the sexes see the ends of power. In general, men see power as
something an individual has and uses to enhance individual status. The tendency
among women is to perceive power as a resource for empowering others and building
strong collaborative teams. Differences in orientations toward power are consistent with
gender communication cultures and the divergent rules of communication they teach
men and women.

Let us answer the following comprehension questions:


What two classes are being compared/contrasted in the passage?
How is gender classified?
What descriptions are based on the similarities and differences?

How to Classify?
One way of classifying objects or ideas is to look for relationships among them and to
organize them into groups. It may either be on the basis of their similarities or
differences.

As an addition, Classification is sorting things into groups or categories on a single


basis of division. It requires the ability to group related words, ideas, and characteristics.
Moreover it is a method of analysis that deals with plural subjects.
