Kromrey, Jeffery D.; Romano, Jeanine – 2001
Monte Carlo methods were used to investigate the effects of removing extreme data points identified by five indices of influence. Multivariate normal data were simulated and observations were removed from samples if they exceeded the criteria suggested in the literature for each influence statistic. Factors included in the design of the Monte…

Thompson, Bruce – 1989
In the present study Monte Carlo methods were employed to evaluate the degree to which canonical function and structure coefficients may be differentially sensitive to sampling error. Sampling error influences were investigated across variations in variable and sample (n) sizes, and across variations in average within-set correlation sizes and in…
