Multiple Factor Analysis for Contingency Tables in the FactoMineR Package
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract We present multiple factor analysis for contingency tables (MFACT) and its implementation in the FactoMineR package. This method, through an option of the MFA function, allows us to deal with multiple contingency or frequency tables, in addition to the categorical and quantitative multiple tables already considered in previous versions of the package. Thanks to this revised function, either a multiple contingency table or a mixed multiple table integrating quantitative, categorical and frequency data can be tackled.

Analysis of Dynamic Longitudinal Categorical Data in Incomplete Contingency Tables Using Capture-Recapture Sampling: A case Study of Semi-Concentrated Doctoral Exam
Abstract. In this paper, dynamic longitudinal categorical data and estimation of their parameters in incomplete contingency tables are evaluated. To apply the proposed method, a study has been conducted on the data of the semi-concentrated doctoral exam of the National Organization for Educational Testing (NOET). The results of studies such as the obtained confidence intervals and calculating t...
متن کاملPartial Association Components in Multi-way Contingency Tables and Their Statistiical Analysis
In analyses of contingency tables made up of categorical variables, the study of relationship between the variables is usually the major objective. So far, many association measures and association models have been used to measure the association structure present in the table. Although the association measures merely determine the degree of strength of association between the study varia...
متن کاملDefault “Gunel and Dickey” Bayes factors for contingency tables
The analysis of R×C contingency tables usually features a test for independence between row and column counts. Throughout the social sciences, the adequacy of the independence hypothesis is generally evaluated by the outcome of a classical p-value null-hypothesis significance test. Unfortunately, however, the classical p-value comes with a number of well-documented drawbacks. Here we outline an...
متن کاملrTableICC: An R Package for Random Generation of 2×2×K and R×C Contingency Tables
In this paper, we describe the R package rTableICC that provides an interface for random generation of 2×2×K and R×C contingency tables constructed over either intraclass-correlated or uncorrelated individuals. Intraclass correlations arise in studies where sampling units include more than one individual and these individuals are correlated. The package implements random generation of contingen...
متن کاملCorrespondence Analysis on Generalised Aggregated Lexical Tables (CA-GALT) in the FactoMineR Package
Correspondence analysis on generalised aggregated lexical tables (CA-GALT) is a method that generalizes classical CA-ALT to the case of several quantitative, categorical and mixed variables. It aims to establish a typology of the external variables and a typology of the events from their mutual relationships. In order to do so, the influence of external variables on the lexical choices is untan...
