An Analysis of Correlation Matrices: Variables Cross-Classified by Two Factors
按两个因素交叉分类的变量之相关矩阵分析
A procedure similar to an analysis of variance is presented for examining the structure in correlation matrices whose variables are cross-classified by two factors, such as multitrait-multimethod matrices. The method tests an equal correlation hypothesis against natural alternative hypotheses suggested by group representations. When there is significant departure from the hypothesized pattern, alternative models to be pursued are indicated. The method is illustrated using an…
