Dear all,

I have to post this on the list because I am not familiar with the
technique. I need help on the following.

1. Information on what MCA does (its advantages and disadvantages). For
example, whether we can use it to test the significance of changes in the
occurrence of an event between two or more time periods. Especially in
situations where we have two or more waves of data set with similar survey
design, instruments etc (but different sampled population).

2. Whether there is a procedure on MCA in SPSS and the location of examples
in the archives (if any).

All responses are greatly appreciated. Thanks.


Muyiwa.
