Hall, Rob; And Others – Environment and Behavior, 1976
Multidimensional scaling configurations were obtained for the same set of 11 stimuli using data from two different judgmental tasks completed by the same group of subjects. The procedure was felt to be a way of obtaining useful information regarding environmental perception. (RH)

This paper examines the difference between dependent and independent responses and suggest that, for the case of independence, a nested analysis of variance model is appropriate. The advantages of this analytic approach are explained, and conditions are discussed under which more powerful test of treatment effects may be obtained. (Author/MA)
