Woldbeck, Tanya – 1998
This paper outlines two types of discriminant analysis, predictive discriminant analysis (PDA) and descriptive discriminant analysis (DDA). Important differences between PDA and DDA are introduced and discussed using a heuristic data set, specifically indicating the portions of the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) output relevant…

Barcikowski, Robert S.; Elliott, Ronald S. – 1991
The contribution of individual variables to overall multivariate significance in a multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) is investigated using a combination of canonical discriminant analysis and Roy-Bose simultaneous confidence intervals. Difficulties with this procedure are discussed, and its advantages are illustrated using examples based…

Meshbane, Alice; Morris, John D. – 1994
A method for comparing the cross validated classification accuracies of linear and quadratic classification rules is presented under varying data conditions for the k-group classification problem. With this method, separate-group as well as total-group proportions of correct classifications can be compared for the two rules. McNemar's test for…

Darom, Efraim – 1982
In an analysis of multitrait-multimethod matrices the criteria for discriminant validity are shown to include a "structure" criterion as an invariance of traits structure to methods. The criterion is meant to fit data to an additive model with traits and methods but not interaction terms. The importance of the structure criterion and the…

Newman, Isadore – 1988
The nature and appropriate application of the technique of multivariate analysis are discussed. More specifically, the intent of the paper is to demystify and explain the use of multivariate analysis as well as provide guidelines for selection of the most effective statistics for use in specific situations. For the purpose of this paper, the term…

Huberty, Carl J. – 1971
This study was concerned with various schemes for reducing the number of variables in a multivariate analysis. Two sets of illustrative data were used; the numbers of criterion groups were 3 and 5. The proportion of correct classifications was employed as an index of discriminatory power of each subset of variables selected. Of the four procedures…
