Hello, I have a file with multiple rows (4) for each subject, each row with a var value for a particular data point. I want to create a set of individual 'spaghetti' graphs mapping these 4 values for each subject. Any suggestions how I can do it in SPSS or where should I look for instructions? Thanks so much.

Subject: Re: Significance testing between R-square from linear and R-square from curvilinear regression (Revised).

Hi:

Steiger's homepage:
http://www.unav.es/genetica/new/soft.html#misc

And Multicorr page:
http://www.interchange.ubc.ca/steiger/multi.htm

Anyway, the links in this page are wrong (they point to a
nonexisting ftp site). I found out that the correct links for
multicorr program & documentation are:
- Program: http://www.interchange.ubc.ca/steiger/multicor.zip
- Manual:  http://www.interchange.ubc.ca/steiger/multicor.pdf

HTH, Marta

SPR> Steiger's multicor program will do that.

SPR> "Want to compare multiple, partial, or canonical correlations for
SPR> equality?
SPR> Steiger and Browne (1984) show how you can do this by reprasing the
SPR> hypothesis as a pattern hypothesis testable by MULTICORR. For a recent
SPR> review of some related correlational tests, see Olkin and Finn (1995).

SPR> Subject: Significance testing between R-square from linear and R-square
SPR> from curvilinear regression (Revised).

SPR>  Hi, I want to clarify my question in previous question.

SPR> I have two variables,  X: time (11 time points) and Y: means of
SPR> evaluation (one group, N = 132).

SPR> I expect that exponential function will fit better than a linear
SPR> function to predict the trajectory.

SPR> I did a curve estimation with exponential function and found R-square
SPR> from the exponential  function is greater than R-square from a linear
SPR> function.
SPR> But how can I test if the difference in R-squares is signifcant?

SPR> I found a formular in Blalock (1972). But it requires correlation
SPR> between Y and transformed Y.

SPR> Should I do time series analysis?

SPR> Any help will be greately appreciated.  Thanks in advance,

SPR> Sungeun
