For multivariate statistical techniques,when there is ________,cluster analysis and multidimensional scaling can be used.
A) variable interdependence
B) interobject similarity
C) more than one dependent variable
D) one dependent variable

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cluster analysis and multidimensional scaling are appropriate when there is interobject similarity, which is usually measured by distance or dissimilarity measures between the objects. These methods are used to identify groups or clusters of similar objects or to visualize complex similarities or differences among objects in multiple dimensions. Variable interdependence and more than one dependent variable are not specific conditions for cluster analysis and multidimensional scaling.
