Interpreting Discriminant Functions: A Data Analytic Approach.

Thomas, D. Roland

Multivariate Behavioral Research, v27 n3 p335-62 1992

The interpretation of discriminant functions as a follow-up to a significant multivariate analysis of variance is discussed. New indices are proposed that aid in identification and interpretation of the subset of response variables that contribute to a significant group discrimination. Their efficacy is compared to several commonly used techniques. (SLD)
