These variables may be correlated with each other,and their statistical dependence is often taken into account when analyzing such data. Infact, this consideration of statistical dependence makes Multivariate Analysis somewhatdifferent in approach and considerably more complex than the corresponding univariateanalysis, when there is only one response variable under variables under consideration are often described as random variables andsince their dependence is one of the things to be accounted for in the analyses, these re-sponse variables are often described by their joint probability di
