Discrimination Among Groups P Are Groups significantly different? (How valid are the Groups ?). < Multivariate analysis of Variance [(NP)MANOVA]. < Multi-Response Permutation Procedures [MRPP]. < analysis of group Similarities [ANOSIM]. < Mantel's Test [MANTEL]. P How do Groups differ? (Which variables best distinguish Among the Groups ?). < Discriminant analysis [DA]. < Classification and Regression Trees [CART]. < Logistic Regression [LR]. < Indicator Species analysis [ISA]. 1. Important Characteristics of Discriminant analysis P Essentially a single technique consisting of a couple of closely related procedures. P Operates on data sets for which pre-specified, well- defined Groups already exist. P Assesses dependent relationships between one set of discriminating variables and a single grouping variable; an attempt is made to define the relationship between independent and dependent variables.
5 PExtension of Multiple Regression Analysis if the research situation defines the group categories as dependent upon the discriminating variables, and a single random sample (N) is drawn in which group membership is "unknown"
