{p 8 14 2}{it:varlist} is a list of two existing dichotomous or polytomous variables or more.
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
{title:Description}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:msp} selects scales of dichotomous or polytomous items with the Mokken Scale Procedure (MSP) defined by Mokken (1971) and by Hemker and al. (1995).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{title:Options}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:nodetails} does not display informations during the algorithm of selection.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:kernel} defines a kernel for the first scale, defined as the first # items of {it:varlist}.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:c} defines the level of the threshold {it:c}. The level of {it:c} is fixed, by default, at 0.3.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:notest} selects the scales whithout tests among the Loevinger H coefficient (Hjk>0): the new item with the maximal value for Hj>c is always selected.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:p} defines the significance level for the tests. The level of {it:p} is fixed, by default, at 0.05.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:pairwise} does no more delete all the individuals who have one or more missing values among all the items of {it:varlist} but, only these ones who have, for each pair of items, one or more missing values to these two items.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:minvalue} defines the minimum value of the coefficient Hjk for a pair of item composing a scale. This minimal value is fixed by default to 0.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:nobon} does no more correct the significance level of the test by the Bonferroni correction.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:noadjust} approximates the tests statistics like the MSP program (Molenaar et al. (2000)).

{title:Remarks}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}For detailed informations on the Mokken scale procedure, see Mokken (1971), Hemker and al. (1995) or the manual of the MSP software (2000).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:msp} runs with dichotomous or polytomous items.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:msp} necessitates the program {help loevH} to compute.

|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{it:r(dim)} saves the number of built scales.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{it:r(selection)} saves a vector which contains, for each item, the scale where it is selected (0 if the item is unselected).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{it:r(H#)} saves the Loevinger's H coefficient of the #th scale.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{it:r(nbitems#)} saves the number of items selected in the #th scale.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{it:r(scale#)} saves the names of the items selected in the #th scale.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{p 4 8 2}{it:r(scalenum#)} saves the numbers of the items selected in the #th scale.
