Classifying Variables on the Basis of Disaggregate Correlations.
Schweizer, Karl
Multivariate Behavioral Research, v26 n3 p435-55 1991
A mathematical formula is introduced for the effect of integrating data. A method is then derived to eliminate the effect from correlations of variables, including mean composites, thus allowing for a clustering algorithm that requires allocation of variables according to the magnitude of their correlations. Examples illustrate the procedure. (SLD)
