Data = C:\DOCUME~1\Mike\LOCALS~1\Temp\1980X36689.97XF3.txt

First active data line is: 1 1 1-5a 5 5 3 5 3

Total lines in data file = 22

Total data lines = 22

Responses matched to model: ?B,?B,?,CREATIVITY,1 = 105

   Total non-blank responses found = 105

        Number of blank data lines = 1

Valid responses used for estimation = 105

Check that the responses matched your models in the way you expected.

Responses not matched to any model and ignored = 0

If some observations did not match any of your models. You can use Query=Y to check what happened

 

Point-biserial correlations are calculated if "Pt-biserial=Y".
