Peer reviewedMilligan, Glenn W. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1989
Simulated test data (N=864 artificial data sets) with four different error conditions were used to study the recovery characteristics of the beta-flexible clustering method. Conditions under which the beta-flexible method provides good recovery are discussed. (SLD)

Two reduced rank classification procedures, principal components classification and equal weights classification, are described and compared by a simulation study to the standard classification procedure to determine their feasibilities as alternative classification procedures. A justification for the development of these two reduced rank…

Peer reviewedSuziedelis, Antanas; And Others – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1976
A method of typological analysis was applied to computer-generated 96-item questionnaire data for 100 cases, under a variety of conditions to analyze both the item-level and score-level. The results showed a considerable advantage of score-level approach in the number, size, and replicability of clusters recovered. (DEP)
