Roles

|
Dependent
variable
|
specifies the column
to use as the dependent variable.
|
Classification
variable
|
defines the subgroups.
Separate analyses are performed for each subgroup. You can specify
whether to treat missing values as a valid level.
|
Additional Roles
|
|
Frequency
count
|
lists a numeric variable whose
value represents the frequency of the observation. If you assign a
variable to this role, the task assumes that each observation represents n observations,
where n is the value of the frequency variable.
If n is not an integer, SAS truncates it. If n is
less than 1 or is missing, the observation is excluded from the analysis.
The sum of the frequency variable represents the total number of observations.
|
Group analysis
by
|
enables you to obtain separate
analyses of observations for each unique group.
