Casewise Data (ANACOR command)

  • Each variable is followed by a value range in parentheses. The value range consists of the variable’s minimum value, a comma, and the variable’s maximum value.
  • Values outside of the specified range are not included in the analysis.
  • Values do not have to be sequential. Empty categories receive scores of 0 and do not affect the rest of the computations.

Example

DATA LIST FREE/VAR1 VAR2.
BEGIN DATA
3 1
6 1
3 1
4 2
4 2
6 3
6 3
6 3
3 2
4 2
6 3
END DATA.
ANACOR TABLE=VAR1(3,6) BY VAR2(1,3).
  • DATA LIST defines two variables, VAR1 and VAR2.
  • VAR1 has three levels, coded 3, 4, and 6, while VAR2 also has three levels, coded 1, 2, and 3.
  • Because a range of (3,6) is specified for VAR1, ANACOR defines four categories, coded 3, 4, 5, and 6. The empty category, 5, for which there is no data, receives zeros for all statistics but does not affect the analysis.
