  1. If prediction is the goal of analysis, the researcher might use discriminant function scores in order to describe group differences.

T

F

  1. The main analysis obtained from a discriminant analysis is the summary of the discriminant functions.

T

F

  1. A discriminant score is analogous to a factor score.

T

F

  1. A canonical correlation is a value that is equivalent to the correlation between the discriminant scores and the levels of the independent variables.

T

F

  1. A high value for this correlation indicates a function that does not discriminate well between participants.

F

  1. Standardized coefficients are the basis for the calculation of discriminant scores in discriminant analysis.

T

F

  1. Standardized coefficients are used to assess the relative contributions of individual variables to the discriminant function(s).

T

F

  1. The hit rate refers to the number of correct classifications.

T

F

  1. Assessing the accuracy of the hit rates cannot be accomplished through the use of the jackknife procedure.

T

F

  1. An important consideration when assessing a classification procedure is the cost of classification.

T

F

  1. Misclassification is best explained through the statistical analysis rather than being assessed and explicated by the knowledge and intuition of the researcher.
