Explanation:
The first term seems to be used more in a psychological/sociological environment:

==========
There's also a statistical tree modell (predictions, decision making) where something similar is used:

Q7. Welche Kriterien fuer das Wachstum von Baeumen (splitting criteria) bietet CART?
A7. CART beinhaltet sieben Teilungskriterien die nur eine Variable berücksichtigen- Gini, Symgini, Twoing, ordered twoing und "class probability" fuer Klassifikationsbaeume, sowie kleinste Quadrate und kleinste absolute Abweichung fuer Regressions Baeume. Hinzu kommte ein multi-variables Splitting-Kriterium, die 'linear combinations' -Methode. Die voreingestellte Gini-Methode ergibt meist die besten Resultate aber unter bestimmten Umstaenden koennen andere Methoden genauere Modelle liefern.
