Abstract: Preparation of test corpora by computer simulation avoids the expense of converting real text to machine‐sensible format and forces the experimenter to explicate the basic assumptions underlying his keyword‐selection strategies. Its use permits unidimensional, quantitative, low‐variance measurement of the relative effectiveness of alternative selection criteria.
