Matrix Algebra Problems with Applications in Psychology and Multivariate Analysis
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Students in Multivariate Analysis need to develop skills in working with matrices and reading matrix expressions. Some of the skills which seem to be important are: 1. Performing simple matrix calculations 2. Manipulating algebraic expressions in matrices—substituting identities, simplifying expressions, etc. 3. Formulating substantive and statistical problems in matrix terms—or, recognizing such in journal articles. 4. Understanding certain key results (theorems) of matrix algebra. 5. Recognizing these results when they are used in your text. The following problems are directed toward developing these skills. Along the way, some matrix applications in psychology and multivariate statistics are introduced.

The Effectiveness of Matrix Therapy on Suicidal Tendency and Psychological Dimensions of Sexual Problems in Substance Abusers
Background and Objectives: Studies have shown to some extent the effectiveness of matrix therapy in reducing the severity of addiction and psychological consequences in general. The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of matrix therapy on suicidal tendency and the psychological dimensions of sexual problems in substance abusers. Methods: This was a quasi-experimental pretest ...
متن کاملThe Geometry of Multivariate Polynomial Division and Elimination
Multivariate polynomials are usually discussed in the framework of algebraic geometry. Solving problems in algebraic geometry usually involves the use of a Gröbner basis. This talk will show that linear algebra without any Gröbner basis computation suffices to solve basic problems from algebraic geometry. Three basic operations, multiplication, division and elimination, will be described using ...
متن کاملGeneralizations of orthogonal polynomials
We give a survey of recent generalizations for orthogonal polynomials that were recently obtained. It concerns not only multidimensional (matrix and vector orthogonal polynomials) and multivariate versions, or multipole (orthogonal rational functions) variants of the classical polynomials but also extensions of the orthogonality conditions (multiple orthogonality). Most of these generalizations...
متن کاملChapter 1 Regularization and Matrix Computation in Numerical Polynomial Algebra
Numerical polynomial algebra emerges as a growing field of study in recent years with a broad spectrum of applications and many robust algorithms. Among the challenges in solving polynomial algebra problems with floating-point arithmetic, difficulties frequently arise in regularizing ill-posedness and handling large matrices. We elaborate regularization principles for reformulating the illposed...
متن کاملArens Regularity and Weak Amenability of Certain Matrix Algebras
Motivated by an Arens regularity problem, we introduce the concepts of matrix Banach space and matrix Banach algebra. The notion of matrix normed space in the sense of Ruan is a special case of our matrix normed system. A matrix Banach algebra is a matrix Banach space with a completely contractive multiplication. We study the structure of matrix Banach spaces and matrix Banach algebras. Then we...
