PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To display a relationship of each category between 3 categories in a way easy to understand. SOLUTION: If three categories, i.e., 'respondent' of a questionnaire, 'knowledge/information' that the person used and 'source' of the knowledge/ information are provided, each category is allocated to each circle of triple concentric circles (respondent area 100, knowledge/information area 200, source area 300). Nodes 110, 210 and 310 individually representing respondent, knowledge/information and source respectively are arranged in the category areas 100, 200 and 300 which the nodes belong to. Arcs 150 connecting between the nodes 110 of respondent and the node 210 of knowledge/information that the respondent used are displayed, and arcs 250 connecting between the nodes 210 representing knowledge/information and the nodes 310 representing source are displayed. The arcs 150 are in solid lines, and the arcs 250 in dashed lines, so that the both are easily distinguished since the both are displayed in different displayed patterns. COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
