The study employed a stratified random-sampling process to develop two equal-size samples. The individuals' ABS domain scores in the derivation sample were delivered to stepwise multiple discriminant function analysis. It shows that knowledge of an individual's ABS scores would enable a test user to make valid estimates of group membership. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 1980 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
