Multivariate Taxometric Procedures: Distinguishing Types from Continua: Advanced Quantitative Techniques in the Social Sciences, cartea 9

Autor Niels Waller, Paul Meehl
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 4 feb 1998
Can taxometric procedures be used to distinguish types (species, latent classes, taxa) from continua (dimensions, latent traits, factors); and, if so, how? Aimed at demystifying this process, Waller and Meehl unpack Meehl's work on the MAXCOV-HITMAX procedure to reveal the underlying rationale of MAXCOV in simple terms and show how this technique can be profitably used in a variety of disciplines by researchers in their taxonomic work.

Recenzii

"It is an extraordinary intelligent yet accessible explication of taxometric procedures—their logic, analytical steps, and underlying philosophy of science—linking them to factor analytic methods traditionally used to analyze contrivances for underlying continuous differences."
