analysis of discrete data

For example, the number of parts damaged in shipment. Netherlands Journal of Psychology / Multilevel exploratory factor analysis of discrete data 114 Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) can be used to determine the dimensionality of a set of items. References are provided in the lesson materials for both texts. This data is known as, Discrete Data. These may include causality, repeated measures, generalized least squares, mixed models, latent-class models, missing data, and/or algebraic statistics approaches. 0000008390 00000 n 0000011537 00000 n For discrete data where attribute agreement analysis is used, is necessary to have kappa value at least 0.7 for nominal and ordinal data, and Kendall’s correlation coefficient [with a known standard] has to be at least 0.9 for ordinal data. The data we've looked at, throughout this course, have had a fixed range of values. 1. The focus of this class is a multivariate analysis of discrete data. 0000033410 00000 n 1020 0 obj << /Linearized 1 /O 1023 /H [ 1617 378 ] /L 213919 /E 75568 /N 5 /T 193399 >> endobj xref 1020 39 0000000016 00000 n H‰b```f``d`c`à¸Â È€ ‚¬@Q� §k^kZs¶cø†uv�Ğ¢P˜4sûİ&�;S\ 0000009325 00000 n 0000007463 00000 n It creates a column analysis in which indicators, appropriate for numeric data, are assigned to the column by default. The purpose of Data Analysis is to extract useful information from data and taking the decision based upon the data analysis. We have not yet encountered data that could take any value within a defined range, known as, Continuous Data..

Manski and Daniel L. McFadden, Editors Cambridge: The MIT Press, 1981. Students should already feel comfortable using either SAS or R, or be a quick learner of software packages, or be able to figure out how to do the required analyses in another package of their choice. 0000007042 00000 n Using polytomous logit models for ordinal and nominal response.

Stem-and-leaf-plot and pie chart are great for displaying discrete data too. 0000002425 00000 n Here we deal with data which are discretely measured responses such as counts, proportions, nominal variables, ordinal variables, discrete interval variables with few values, continuous variables grouped into a small number of categories, etc. Students should NOT wait to the point of frustration but must be proactive in seeking advice and help from appropriate sources including documentation resources, other students via the online discussion boards, the teaching assistant, instructor or helpdesk.
