The Evaluation of Classroom Social Structure by Three-Way Multidimensional Scaling of Sociometric Data.
Langeheine, Rolf
Studies in Educational Evaluation, v4 n3 p185-208 Win 1978
A three-way multidimensional scaling model is presented as a method for identifying classroom cliques, by simultaneous analysis of three variables (for example, chooser/choosen/criteria). Two scaling models--Carroll and Chang's INDSCAL and Lingoes' PINDIS--are presented and applied to two sets of empirical data. (CP)
