Hi, 

If you have a variable, that defines what you want to differentiate (sociology, 
economics etc.) then you can add color depending on the value of that  
variable. You will have to convert it to numeric if it is not.
An example would be

plot( iris[ , 1 ], iris[ , 2], col = iris[ , 3 ] )


Regards
