This list of key word descriptors is a revision of the original list obtained form MH and NSF and circulated to prospective peer review volunteers in 1992. The list has been expanded by more than 500 descriptors suggested by reviewers and departments. These words have been added as alphabetized blocks (Additions) under their respective general categories (Marked with an * in the Table of Contents below.) The addition numbers end with the final digits, 3xx, starting in each category with 301.
We hope the abbreviated Table of Contents below will help you locate appropriate descriptors.
