This paper explains how a major statistical package (BMDP) can be used to produce partial, semipartial, or bipartial set correlation in terms of a procedure outlined by Karpman (1980). (BW)

Multivariate generalizability deals with the interpretation of a profile or composite of measurements. Using data from the Beginning Teacher Evaluation Study to illustrate the differing interpretations of viewing test data from universe and multivariate perspectives, this chapter concludes with computer programs that the reader can implement to…

A computer-simulated study was made of the sampling distribution of omega squared, a measure of strength of relationship in multivariate analysis of variance which had earlier been proposed by the author. It was found that this measure was highly positively biased when the number of variables is large and the sample size is small. A correction…

Part and bi-partial canonical correlations were developed by extending the definitions of part and bi-partial correlation to sets of variates. These coefficients may be used to help researchers explore relationships which exist among several sets of normally distributed variates. (Author)

The issues in the interpretation of discriminant analyses presented are restricted to the typical uses of discriminant analysis by behavioral science researchers. Because behavioral researchers use computer programs packages, the issues discussed deal with information obtainable from the package discriminant analysis programs. The following issues…

Transcripts analyzed by computer programs reveal that when individuals shift from truthfulness to deception, there are corresponding shifts in lexical diversity, such as fewer words, decrease in the number of unique words used, fewer past tense verbs, and a decrease in the perceptual-cognitive activity.
