| Date | Tue, 12 Feb 2013 15:09:04 +0000 |
Dear Statalist Users I have a set of variables that look at party leader traits. For example, on a scale from 0 to 5 how well does trait X describe leader Y? I would like to examine whether these traits form a scale or not. Is Mokken scaling procedure the right approach for this and if so, what does the actual output tell me? See below for an example where traits are knows how to manage economy, likeable, energetic, trustworthy. * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search * http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/resources/statalist-faq/ * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/
