Measures

The problems noted in the measures for the degenerate solution have been corrected here.

• The normalized stress is no longer 0.
• The coefficient of variation for the transformed proximities now has a similar value to the coefficient of variation for the original proximities.
• DeSarbo's intermixedness indices are much closer to 0, indicating that the solution is much better intermixed.
• Shepard's rough nondegeneracy index, which is reported as a percentage of different distances, is now nearly 80%. There are sufficiently different distances, and the solution is probably nondegenerate.
