chi3: The partition of the Pearson three-way index

In CA3variants: Three-Way Correspondence Analysis Variants

The partition of the Pearson three-way index

Description

When three categorical variables are symmetrically related, we can analyse the strength of the association using the three-way Pearson mean square contingency coefficient, named the chi-squared index. The function chi3 partitions the Pearson phi-squared statistic when in CA3variants we set the parameter ca3type = "CA3".

Usage

chi3(f3, digits = 3)

Arguments

f3	The three-way contingency array given as an input parameter in CA3variants.
digits	The number of decimal digits. By default digits=3.

Value

The partition of the Pearson index into three two-way association terms and one three-way association term. It also shows the explained inertia, the degrees of freedom and p-value of each term of the partition.
