A university research manager wants to determine how ten academic disciplines compare to each other in relation to five different funding categories. The manager collects 2-way classification data for 796 researchers.
You can use this data to demonstrate Simple Correspondence Analysis.
Worksheet column | Description |
---|---|
CT1 | Number of researchers at funding level A (highest funding) |

CT3 | Number of researchers at funding level C |
CT4 | Number of researchers at funding level D (lowest funding) |
CT5 | Number of researchers at funding level E (unfunded) |
RowNames | The row names (academic disciplines): Geology Biochemistry Chemistry Zoology Physics Engineering Microbiology Botany Statistics Mathematics |
