This paper describes an analytical solution to a common problem in aptitude-treatment interaction (ATI). The researcher is often interested in the comparison between treatments for a large set of attributes. If this set is large, the chance of non-orthogonality is correspondingly large. In these circumstances the analysis and interpretation…

Yarworth and Gauthier (EJ 189 606) examined whether self-concept variables enhanced predictions about students' participation in school activities, using unstructured stepwise regression techniques.

A general interest in attrition, or loss of units from a study, stems in part from the observation that the infrequency of attention to attrition exacerbates problems of data interpretation. As a substudy of the national evaluation of Project Follow Through, the potential biasing effects of attrition of subjects from the sites were investigated.…
