Hello,

I am attempting to reproduce results in SAS that Huberty & Olejnik (2006) discuss in section 8.5 (p. 143, for example) where these authors perform a descriptive discriminant analysis (what SAS calls a canonical discriminant analysis) in SPSS. I am using PROC DISCRIM with the CANONICAL option, however:

This situation is a 2 factor MANOVA situation. Apparently SPSS performs the MANOVA and DDA all part of the same MANOVA program. In SAS, I am using separate calls to GLM and DISCRIM and am unable to reproduce the DDA results in DISCRIM for each of the main effects (the GLM results match the SPSS output, but not the DDA results). I assume this is b/c I am not able to specify the correct Error SSCP matrix in DISCRIM (but I'm not 100% sure about that...).

Does anyone have any suggestions or expertise in this area?

Thank you,

Dan
