Research Projects Using Vinyard Products
Research Note: Using the ITERATE and DOTS Databases
By Peter A. Flemming, Edward Mickolus, and Todd Sandler
For more than three decades, Vinyard Software’s two ITERATE (International Terrorism: Attributes of Terrorist Events) datasets have set the standard in events research for terrorism researchers. It has recently been supplemented by the DOTS (Data on Terrorist Subjects) biographies project, which covers all terrorists, supporters, and other individuals mentioned in the ITERATE project.
The textual version of ITERATE covers the genesis of contemporary international terrorism from 1960 through today. It is available in MSWord/WordPerfect format, and is based upon the chronologies published by Ed Mickolus, Todd Sandler, Jean Murdock, Peter Flemming and Susan Simmons with Greenwood Press and Iowa State University Press.
ITERATE’s numeric version, in Excel format, covers 1968 through today, coding the incidents discussed in the textual chronologies. It combines a family of four distinct but interrelated files which count the most salient components of international terrorism:
All variables and values for the data have remained constant. New values, however, are added with the emergence of new terrorist groups and types of terrorist activity.
ITERATE data are derived from Vinyard’s textual chronology of international terrorism which employs inter alia an exhaustive search of major media, research, news and information services. A partial list of media sources includes AP, UPI, Reuter, CNN , MSNB , AFP, The Washington Post, New York Times, LA Times, Time, Newsweek, and al Jazeera. The chronology also incorporates information obtained from interviews with government officials, scholars, and former hostages/others involved in international terrorist incidents. Additional sources include relevant manuscripts and scholarly publications dealing with the subject. Finally, the chronology uses many official government chronologies, including those published by the NCTC, FBI, CIA, US Department of State, and FAA. All of these sources have been consistently used since the inception of the data base. To ensure accuracy, ITERATE is updated daily and corrected constantly. Coding of the chronology ensures a high level of transparency wherein researchers are able to review and dissect individual cases from both a textual and numerical context. Researchers can also select subsets of the data for review, and alter variable values in specific cases.
The largest and the most comprehensive of the ITERATE files is the Common File, which covers 1968-2022 (we’re working on this year’s data as well). Its key features include:
Key features of other files include:
The ITERATE dataset is a particularly valuable research tool for dissecting the dynamics of international terrorism. Each of its four files can be used separately, or in conjunction with one another. Incident codes for each event enable immediate cross reference, with data from the Fate, Hostage and Skyjack Files, expanding incident information found in the Common File. This dataset is designed with a high degree of functionality so that it is compatible for use with other non-terrorism related data. For instance, analysis of much of the ITERATE data can be combined with various social, political, economic or geopolitical indices. Data from ITERATE are easily selected out or copied for research directed at one specific aspect of international terrorism and its relationship to external forces. Incident numbers used in the numeric version of ITERATE are cross-referenced in the textual version, which gives even more detail on the specifics of incidents. New variables can be added to the existing dataset by the user to enhance specific types of analysis. ITERATE readily lends itself to addressing a wide array of research questions at many different levels of analysis. Examples of these include:
ITERATE provides a wealth of information for those who wish to analyze international terrorism beyond selective or anecdotal references. ITERATE is a dynamic dataset which continually serves as a basis for new and companion data. Functional aspects of this dataset permit significant means for exploring the intricacies of international terrorism and identifying the underlying factors which ultimately define this form of violence. Hundreds of scholars, journalists, government officials, and security practitioners in two dozen countries have successfully and effectively used ITERATE over the last 30 years to gain a more thorough comprehension of international terrorism and bolster extant knowledge through the presentation of empirical evidence.
Vinyard’s new dataset, DOTS (Data on Terrorist Suspects), provides textual biographic information on every terrorist covered by the chronology. The 15,000-item database serves as a compendium of biographies of Leaders, Perpetrators, Financiers, Defendants, Detainees, Persons of Interest, Conspirators, and Others, including aliases and kunyas, receiving mention in any of the international incidents appearing in ITERATE and other sources from 1960 to the present day.
The datasets are available via Vinyardsoftware@hotmail.com on the Internet or via postal services at Vinyard Software, Inc. 2305 Sandburg Street, Dunn Loring, VA 22027-1124.
