Discriminating Geriatric and Nongeriatric Patients Using Functional Status Information: An Example of Classification Tree Analysis via UniODA.
Yarnold, Paul R.
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v56 n4 p656-67 Aug 1996
A procedure is described that involves iterative use of univariable optimal discriminant analysis (UniODA) to construct a classification tree model for discriminating observations from different groups. The procedure is illustrated using an application that involved discriminating 125 geriatric and nongeriatric patients on the basis of their self-reported functional status. (SLD)
