Multivariate Analysis: Principal Component Analysis |
You can use the Method tab to set options in the analysis. (See Figure 26.3.) Each UI control on the tab corresponds to an option in the PRINCOMP procedure. The Method tab contains the following UI controls:
- Compute principal components from
specifies whether the principal components are computed for the correlation matrix or the covariance matrix. This list corresponds to the COV option in the PROC PRINCOMP statement.
- Number of principal components
specifies how many principal components to compute. This list corresponds to the N= option in the PROC PRINCOMP statement. You can type in this field. If you want five principal components, you can type 5 even though 5 is not an option in the list.
- Standardize principal component scores
specifies whether to standardize the principal component score. This check box corresponds to the STANDARD option in the PROC PRINCOMP statement. If you clear this check box, the scores have variance equal to the corresponding eigenvalue.
