Using a Measure of Variable Importance to Investigate the Standardization of Discriminant Coefficients.
Thomas, D. Roland; Zumbo, Bruno D.
Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, v21 n2 p110-30 Sum 1996
It is argued that instead of using the standardized discriminant coefficients to assess variable importance, the parallel and total discriminant ratio coefficients (DRCs) proposed by D. R. Thomas (1992) should be used, and parallel DRCs should be adopted as the actual importance measures. (SLD)
