Worksheet Functions Real Statistics Functions: The Real Statistics Resource Pack contains the following array functions where R1 is an array containing an m × n contingency table, R2 is an mm × n array containing supplementary row profiles and R3 is an m × nn array containing supplementary column profiles. None of these arrays include row … Read More

Overview Correspondence analysis plays a role similar to factor analysis or principal component analysis for categorical data expressed as a contingency table (e.g. as described in the chi-square test of independence). For a 10 × 10, a complete description of the associations between row elements and column elements requires nine dimensions. Unfortunately, it is difficult … Read More

Correspondence analysis plays a role similar to factor analysis or principal component analysis for categorical data expressed as a contingency table (e.g. as described in the chi-square test of independence). Essentially, correspondence analysis decomposes the chi-square statistic of independence into orthogonal factors. This approach is valid even when the cell sizes in the contingency table … Read More

Worksheet Functions Real Statistics Functions: The Real Statistics Pack provides the following worksheet functions: TCORREL(R1, lab, opt, alpha): outputs a column array containing the tetrachoric correlation coefficient for the 2 × 2 contingency table in range R1 (without headings), standard error, z statistic, p-value, and the lower and upper limits of the 1 – alpha … Read More

We now describe how to estimate the tetrachoric correlation coefficient, i.e. the polychoric correlation coefficient for 2 × 2 contingency tables. In what follows we assume that the contingency table has 2 rows and 2 columns where the element in the ith row and jth column is aij. Method 1 An estimate for the tetrachoric … Read More

Objective Suppose we have a contingency table with m rows and n columns. Further, suppose that the element in the ith row and jth column is aij. Our goal now is to find the value of ρ which maximizes the log-likelihood function LL where We can accomplish this by using Excel’s Solver. Example Example 1: Calculate … Read More

Introduction When data is organized in the form of a contingency table (see Independence Testing) where the two categorical independent variables (corresponding to the row and columns) are ordered, then we can calculate a polychoric correlation coefficient. This coefficient is an approximation to what Pearson’s correlation coefficient would be if we had continuous data. For … Read More
