You may be talking about principal component analysis. The best package I
have seen is RepGrid II which is available from the Centre for
Person-Computer Studies, Calgary, Alberta, Canada tel. (403) 289 2986. It
includes Focus (clusters and trees).

There are many others, however, and I am sure you will be hearing from
afficinados of some of them. I have one called GridCor from Guillem
Feixas at Barcelona which has no manual and is based on a rather different
theoretical notion of comparison. That is for PCs so presumably not for you.

ReGrid is excellent, easy to use and good for interactive stuff with
research participants.
