Different conceptual ways to analyse information are here defined by means of the fundamental notion of a relation. This approach makes it possible to compare different mathematical notions and tools used in qualitative data analysis. Moreover, since relations are representable by Boolean matrices, computing the conceptual-oriented operators is straightforward. Finally, the relational-based approach makes it possible to conceptually analyse not only sets but relations themselves.
