298 EDUCATIONAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL RESEARCH PAPERS PUBLISHED IN 5 JOURNALS DURING 1966-67 WERE CLASSIFIED ON THE BASIS OF SPONSORSHIP, AUTHORS' GENERAL INTENTIONS, DESIGN, ASSUMPTIONS, AND ANALYSIS. ADVANCES IN STATISTICAL THEORY (INCLUDING WORK ON GENERAL ANALYSIS OF VARIANCE DESIGNS, HYPOTHESIS TESTING IN FACTOR ANALYSIS, MULTIVARIATE ANALYSIS, FACTOR ANALYSIS, AND NON-METRIC DATA ANALYSIS) ARE DISCUSSED. BECAUSE OF THE RECENT PROLIFERATION OF STATISTICAL METHODOLOGY, RESEARCH IS SUGGESTED ON WHETHER DIFFERENT METHODS LEAD TO SUBSTANTIALLY DIFFERENT INTERPRETATIONS OF DATA, AND WHETHER ALGORITHMS ARE COMPUTED DIFFERENTLY WHEN MACHINES AND PROGRAMS OF DIFFERENT DESIGNS ARE EMPLOYED. IN GENERAL, INCREASED USE OF MULTIVARIATE METHODS IS RECOMMENDED. PAPER READ AT 1967 RESEARCH CONVOCATION OF THE EDUC. RES. ASSOC. OF N.Y. STATE (ALBANY, NOV. 1967). (AF)
