：自 1940 年代末由加州理工学院 (Caltech) 的 Fritz Zwicky 提出概念和发展以来，“形态学方法”（或通用形态分析 (GMA)）已应用于许多不同的研究领域，从工程设计和技术预测到政策分析、组织发展和创意写作。本文概述了自 20 世纪 50 年代以来开发的 GMA 的众多应用，并给出了约 80 篇已发表文章的示例。还描述了 Zwicky 工作的早期示例，并概述了现代计算机辅助 GMA。
: Since its conception and development in the late 1940’s by Fritz Zwicky at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), the “morphological approach” – or General Morphological Analysis (GMA) – has been applied to many diverse areas of study, from engineering design and technological forecasting to policy analysis, organisational development and creative writing. This article outlines the numerous applications of GMA developed since the 1950’s and gives examples from some 80 published articles. Early e xamples of Zwicky’s work are also described and an overview of modern, computer-aided GMA is presented.
