Basic Unpredictability of Individual Responses to Discrete Stimulus Presentations
A common assertion of psychologists is that the objeotive of psychology .is to predict and control behavior. The assertion springs from the belief that psychologists will learn enough about general stimulus-raponse laws and underlying factors' of behavior to predict how a given individual will react in a given discrete stim- ulus situation, and we will be able to arrange situations in a fashion that will control what the individual does
Generality and Reliability of Individual Situations Differences in Discrete Stimulus-Item
The basic data with which psychologists commonly deal are the dichotomous responses of individuals t o stimulus presentations. The stimulus situations studied range from those presented in psychophysical brass instrument experiments .to items printed in tests of ability and personality
Comparative Cluster Analysis Of Social Areas
Three demographic dimensions previously isolated by cluster analysis procedures (using BC TRY System computer analyses) were compared in different metropolitan areas for their stability over time and place. Also, the social areas discovered within the communities were studied for their stability over time and place. The three demographic dimensions (socio-economic independence, family life, and assimilation) accounted for the generality of 33 cen…
Comparative Cluster Analysis Of Variables And Individuals: Holzinger Abilities And The MMPI
On the Holzinger-Swineford tests, the cluster dimensions found in a group of Factory children are compared with the dimensions found in a group of Suburban children. The typological structure in the two groups is also compared, and found similar, with notable exceptions. A similar series of analyses is made upon a sample of patients and a sample of normals in respect to MMPI item-clusters. Important differences are shown in the typological struct…
Person-Clusters on Intellectual Abilities and on Mmpi Attributes
When persons are observed on multiple dimensions discovered by the objective procedures of the cluster analysis of variables (V-analysis), they can then be allocated to person-clusters by the equally-objective procedures of object-clustering (O-analysis). These procedures, called the Condensation Method, are completely worked out on two empirical studies. In the first study on intellectual abilities (the Holzinger Problem) 301 children are assign…
Predicting Group Differences In Cluster Analysis: The Social Area Problem
Prediction of group differences by cluster analysis procedures is described for the case of neighborhoods (tracts) of a metropolitan area. Social areas of homogeneous neighborhoods are isolated by objective "O-analysis" procedures of the BC TRY Computer System. The predictor attributes are pre-war demographic features from which high predictions both of demographic and voting-attitudes are made up to 15 years, despite the social disruptions of a …
Predicting Individual Differences By Cluster Analysis: Holzinger Abilities And MMPI Personality Attributes
Prediction of individual differences by cluster analysis procedures is described for the case of Holzinger's 24-variable problem and the case of MMPI item-clusters. Comparisons are made between univariate, multiple regression, and person-cluster predictions. The best prediction is from person- clusters, whose score patterns are objectively isolated by BC TRY Computer System programs. The role of chance is objectively assessed by program 4CAST and…
The BC Try Computer System of Cluster And Factor Analysis
The structure and use of the BC TRY system in both variable and object analysis are described. The system of about 30 programs includes programs for data handling, intercorrelating data, communality estimation, factoring (cluster analysis, bifactor analysis, square root factoring, principal components, canonical factoring, alpha factoring, etc.), rotation, structure analysis, geo- metrical-graphical subsetting of factor spaces, factor and cluster…
Unrestricted Cluster And Factor Analysis, With Applications To The MMPI And Holzinger-Harman Problems
A solution is provided for the problem of large numbers of variables in V-analysis and of large numbers of subjects in 0-analysis. The solution is that of estimating the Structure in the total set from the structures found in manageable samples of the total set. The samples are drawn randomly; structures of each are computed by existing BC TRY programs; finally the structures of the random samples are combined using new BC TRY programs. Examples …
