A Monte Carlo Investigation of Recovery of Structure by ALSCAL

MacCallum, Robert C.; Cornelius, Edwin T., III

Psychometrika, 42, 3, 401-28, Sep 77

A Monte Carlo study was carried out to investigate the ability of the ALSCAL multidimensional scaling program to recover true structure inherent in simulated proximity data. The results under varying conditions were mixed. Practical implications and suggestions for further research are discussed. (Author/JKS)
