VARIABLES Subcommand (MULTIPLE CORRESPONDENCE command)

VARIABLES specifies the variables that may be analyzed in the current MULTIPLE CORRESPONDENCE procedure.

  • The VARIABLES subcommand is required. The actual keyword VARIABLES can be omitted.
  • At least two variables must be specified, except if the CONFIGURATION subcommand with the FIXED keyword is used.
  • The keyword TO on the VARIABLES subcommand refers to the order of variables in the working data file. (Note that this behavior of TO is different from that in the varlist in the ANALYSIS subcommand.)
