Libraries.Compute.Statistics.Tests.CheckReducibilityStrength Documentation

This class implements a suitibiity check before a Factor Analysis: CheckReducibilityStrength is a Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin Measure Of Sampling Adequacy Measures sampling adequacy for each variable in the model and for the complete model, a prerequisite for factor analysis to work.

Actions Documentation

AddColumn(integer column)

This action adds a value to the end of the input.

Parameters

  • integer column

AddFactor(integer column)

This action adds a value to the end of the input.

Parameters

  • integer column

Calculate(Libraries.Compute.Statistics.DataFrame frame)

Parameters

Compare(Libraries.Language.Object object)

This action compares two object hash codes and returns an integer. The result is larger if this hash code is larger than the object passed as a parameter, smaller, or equal. In this case, -1 means smaller, 0 means equal, and 1 means larger. This action was changed in Quorum 7 to return an integer, instead of a CompareResult object, because the previous implementation was causing efficiency issues.

Parameters

Return

integer: The Compare result, Smaller, Equal, or Larger.

Example

Object o
Object t
integer result = o:Compare(t) //1 (larger), 0 (equal), or -1 (smaller)

EmptyColumns()

This action empty's the list, clearing out all of the items contained within it.

EmptyFactors()

This action empty's the list, clearing out all of the items contained within it.

Equals(Libraries.Language.Object object)

This action determines if two objects are equal based on their hash code values.

Parameters

Return

boolean: True if the hash codes are equal and false if they are not equal.

Example

use Libraries.Language.Object
use Libraries.Language.Types.Text
Object o
Text t
boolean result = o:Equals(t)

GetColumn(integer index)

This action gets the item at a given location in an array.

Parameters

  • integer index

Return

integer: The item at the given location.

GetColumnIterator()

This action gets an iterator for the object and returns that iterator.

Return

Libraries.Containers.Iterator: Returns the iterator for an object.

GetColumnSize()

This action gets the size of the array.

Return

integer:

GetFactor(integer index)

This action gets the item at a given location in an array.

Parameters

  • integer index

Return

integer: The item at the given location.

GetFactorIterator()

This action gets an iterator for the object and returns that iterator.

Return

Libraries.Containers.Iterator: Returns the iterator for an object.

GetFactorSize()

This action gets the size of the array.

Return

integer:

GetFormalSummary()

This action summarizes the results and places them into formal academic language, in APA format. For more information: https://apastyle.apa.org/instructional-aids/numbers-statistics-guide.pdf

Return

text: a condensed formal result of the test

Example

use Libraries.Compute.Statistics.DataFrame
use Libraries.Compute.Statistics.Tests.CheckReducibilityStrength
    
DataFrame frame
frame:Load("Data/Data.csv")
frame:SelectAllColumns()
    
CheckReducibilityStrength test
test:Calculate(frame)
output test:GetFormalSummary()

GetGroups(Libraries.Compute.Statistics.DataFrame frame)

Gets the the fully factored samples/groups in an array of dataframes. Using an array of dataframes instead of a single dataframe helps with multivariate cases.

Parameters

Return

Libraries.Containers.HashTable:

GetHashCode()

This action gets the hash code for an object.

Return

integer: The integer hash code of the object.

Example

Object o
integer hash = o:GetHashCode()

GetIndividualScores()

This returns the test statistic if only one result exists.

Return

Libraries.Compute.Statistics.DataFrame: the test statistic.

GetReport(Libraries.System.File file)

This creates an HTML page with the results as its contents.

Parameters

GetResult()

This returns a result if only one exists.

Return

Libraries.Compute.Statistics.Reporting.CheckReducibilityStrengthResult: the CheckReducibilityResult object

Example

use Libraries.Compute.Statistics.DataFrame
use Libraries.Compute.Statistics.Tests.CheckReducibilityStrength
use Libraries.Compute.Statistics.Reporting.CheckReducibilityStrengthResult
    
DataFrame frame
frame:Load("Data/Data.csv")
frame:SelectAllColumns()
    
CheckReducibilityStrength test
test:Calculate(frame)

CheckReducibilityStrengthResult result = test:GetResult()

GetResults()

Return

Libraries.Containers.Array: an array of CheckReducibilityStrengthResult objects

Example

use Libraries.Compute.Statistics.DataFrame
use Libraries.Compute.Statistics.Tests.CheckReducibilityStrength
use Libraries.Compute.Statistics.Reporting.CheckReducibilityStrengthResult
    
DataFrame frame
frame:Load("Data/Data.csv")
frame:SelectAllColumns()
    
CheckReducibilityStrength test

Array<CheckReducibilityStrengthResult> results = test:GetResults()

GetSignificanceLevel()

A list of unique items of the factor

Return

number:

GetStatisticalFormatting()
