perceptual map

Johnny Amora
Deal all,

I have 8 checklist variables (check for favor, uncheck for unfavor).  There are 3000 cases categorized as faculty, staff, admin, and students.  I know how to present the 8 checklist variables in a perceptual map.  Do you know the syntax on how to include the categories (faculty, staff, admin, and students) in the perceptual map? Syntax is welcome.

Thank you.
Johnny

Re: perceptual map

Reutter, Alex
What procedure are you using?  If CATPCA, then on the Object and Variable Plots subdialog, choose to Label Objects by the variable containing the categories.

Re: perceptual map

Kooij, A.J. van der
In reply to this post by Johnny Amora
This can be done with CATPCA by specifying the categorical variable as a supplementary variable with multiple nominal scaling level. Then you can request a biplot of loadings (checklist variables represented as vectors) and centroids, or a joint plot with all the checklist variables (represented as points) and the categorical variable.
 
I might know how to do it if you are not using CATPCA, but then I would need to know how you make a perceptual map?

Hi Alex,
 
Thank you for your suggestion.  But I have a couple of followup  questions.
 
As a background, there are 8 checklist variables (coded 1/2) and one grouping variable (called group) with 9 nominal categories.  The questions are as follow:
 
In the main dialog box of CATPCA, I placed the 8 checklist variables in the "Analysis variables"; then, the group variable in the "supplementary variables".  In the Object and Variable Plots, I chose variable in the label Object, then I put the "group' under selected.  My question is, why each of the 9 categories appeared many times on the biplot.  I supossed that there would be 9 points corresponding to the categories. But the number of points appeared is equal to the number of cases.
 
Everybody are welcome to give comments.
 
Thanks.
Johnny

Re: perceptual map

Kooij, A.J. van der
HOMALS was replaced with Multiple Correspondence in version ?? (13 I think): Analyze menu, Data Reduction, Optimal Scaling, choose All variables multiple nominal. Then the window title is Multiple Correspondence. If you have an older version, you can choose Some variables not multiple nominal (CATPCA), then choose optimal scaling level multiple nominal for all the checklist variables.

Select the categorical variable as supplementary variable and also choose multiple nominal. Then click Plots, Category and select all variables for the Joint plot.

Is this what you want?

 

Regards,

Anita

 In the objects and loadings biplot not the categories of the group variable are included, but the object scores (component/factor scores) for the persons, hence a points for all cases. If you want to display the categories of the group variable, you should choose Plot, Loadings, Include centroids (centroids for the group variable) or Plot, Categories, and select all variables for the Joint plot.

That's right, it was v13.  Just to clarify, Multiple Correspondence replaced Homogeneity Analysis in the dialogs, but HOMALS is still available via syntax; however, the newer Multiple Correspondence procedure is more feature rich.

Re: perceptual map

Kooij, A.J. van der
In reply to this post by Kooij, A.J. van der
 
I have a couple of follow-up questions about the outputs.  
 
1. In the plot output particularly "joint plot of category Points", can
we interpret the association of the group categories with the categories
of the other variables considering that "group" is specified as
supplementary variable?
Yes. A supplementary variable is fitted into the component structure for
the other variables.
2. In the same plot (joint plot of category Points), why are the points
on the plot representing the categories are connected by lines?  What
are the connotations of such lines?
The category points for a variable are always on a straight line through
the origin (except for variables with Multiple nominal scaling level).
This line has the same orientation as the loading vector (see loadings
plot), but it's lenght does not indicate the VAF as the loading vector
does.
3.  In conjunction with question #2 above, is a syntax for removing the
lines from the plot?  I have more plots to construct and it would be
impractical if I would erase/delete the lines manually from the plots
usign the chart editor.
Do you really want to remove the lines? they are helpful in locating the
categories of a variable, because they are all on the same line, I would
think.
If you remove them in chart editor, save as template and apply template
to all plots. I don't know of another way.
 
Regards,
Anita

I have a couple of follow-up questions about the outputs.  
 
1. In the plot output particularly "joint plot of category Points",
can
we interpret the association of the group categories with the categories
of the other variables considering that "group" is specified as
supplementary variable?
Yes. A supplementary variable is fitted into the component structure for
the other variables.
2. In the same plot (joint plot of category Points), why are the points
on the plot representing the categories are connected by lines?  What
are the connotations of such lines?
The category points for a variable are always on a straight line through
the origin (except for variables with Multiple nominal scaling level).
This line has the same orientation as the loading vector (see loadings
plot), but it's lenght does not indicate the VAF as the loading vector
does.
3.  In conjunction with question #2 above, is a syntax for removing the
lines from the plot?  I have more plots to construct and it would be
impractical if I would erase/delete the lines manually from the plots
usign the chart editor.
Do you really want to remove the lines? they are helpful in locating the
categories of a variable, because they are all on the same line, I would
think.
If you remove them in chart editor, save as template and apply template
to all plots. I don't know of another way.
 
Regards,
Anita

Hi everyone,
 
Using the paste facility of SPSS, I acquired the syntax of the CATPCA
procedure which I executed.  The syntax is presented below for
everybody's scrutiny.
 
I have a couple of follow-up questions about the outputs.

Thank you in advance for your kind help.

        I didn't receive the mail from Johnny below, in which it becomes
clear what
        the problem is.

        categories. But the >number of points appeared is equal to the
number of
        cases.
         
         In the objects and loadings biplot not the categories of the
group variable
        are included, but the object scores (component/factor scores)
for the persons,
        hence a points for all cases. If you want to display the
categories of the group
        variable, you should choose Plot, Loadings, Include centroids
(centroids for the
        group variable) or Plot, Categories, and select all variables
for the Joint
        plot.

        Hi Johnny,
       
       
       
        I think I misunderstood exactly what it was you wanted.  IIRC,
Anita van der
        Kooij also replied to your post, and I think her solution will
give you what
        you're looking for.

        Hi Alex,
       
       
       
        Thank you for your suggestion.  But I have a couple of followup
questions.
       
       
       
        As a background, there are 8 checklist variables (coded 1/2) and
one grouping
        variable (called group) with 9 nominal categories.  The
questions are as
        follow:
       
       
       
        In the main dialog box of CATPCA, I placed the 8 checklist
variables in the
        "Analysis variables"; then, the group variable in the
        "supplementary variables".  In the Object and Variable Plots,
I
chose
        variable in the label Object, then I put the "group' under
selected.
        My question is, why each of the 9 categories appeared many times
on the biplot.
        I supossed that there would be 9 points corresponding to the
categories. But the
        number of points appeared is equal to the number of cases.
       
       
       
        Everybody are welcome to give comments.
       
       
       
        Thanks.
       
        Johnny

                What procedure are you using?  If CATPCA, then on the
Object and
        Variable Plots
                subdialog, choose to Label Objects by the variable
containing the
        categories.

                Deal all,
               
                I have 8 checklist variables (check for favor, uncheck

        There are

Do you know the
