This isn't integrated in LyX, but is this what you want? https://gna.org/projects/latex-indexbuild/ This generates a comprehensive list of occurrences of each of the names you specify, which is probably what you want for sociology. (For science, I think it is more normal to only add "significant" mentions of names/terms to the index.) > > Regards. > > Marcelo Acuña -- John C. McCabe-Dansted Masters Student
