Residuals / Responses Output File = " "

Top Up Down  A A

From the Output Files menu, clicking on Residuals/Response Output file. A file of residuals from the main analysis is produced. This file is designed for input into other programs with one line per measurable observation. It can be used for calculating other fit statistics and producing specialized diagnostic reports. Also produced by Residualsfile=.

 

 

Heading lines= control the output of the heading line. CSV= allows tab-delimited and other formats. QM quotation marks, controls whether labels are within quotation marks.

 

Modify specifications lets you change the values of some basic output settings

 

Status: Responses used for estimation: report responses used for estimation (Status code: 1, 2)
Responses not used for estimation: report responses not used for estimation (Status code: -5, -4 , -3, -2, -1)

 

Output directly to Excel and into an SPSS .sav file are supported.

 

Select fields to output lets you choose which fields you want to display:

 

Here is an example of the fixed-field format. The precise format depends on your data and your field selection:

 

  Obs   Stp   Exp   Res   Var StRes    Wt     LProb Logit Displ Status    1     2     1     2 Child Tapping item

    1     1   .97   .03   .02   .16  1.00    -.0254  5.66  1.03     2     1     1  -.96 -6.62 Boy   1-4

The columns are:

 

Fixed field columns

Abbreviation

Description

1-10

Obs

response as observed in the data file

11-20

Stp

response as renumbered into a count of ordered steps

21-30

Exp

expected score for this response

31-40

Res

score residual: (observed - expected)

41-50

Var

model variance of observed score around the expected score for this response, the statistical information in this response

51-60

StRes

standardized residual: residual / sqrt (variance)

61-70

Wt

weighting (model weight * observation weight * item weight)

71-80

LProb

natural logarithm of the probability of the observation

81-90

Logit

logit sum of the measures producing the observation

91-100

Disp

displacement = logit residual = (score residual / variance)

101-110

Status

Status Code

Meaning

-5 (not used for estimation)

Responses after end-of-file.

-4 (not used)

Responses only in extreme scores.

-3 (not used)

Responses with invalid elements. Elements for these observations are not defined. See Table 2.

-2 (not used)

Responses in two extreme scores

-1 (not used)

Responses invalid after recounting

A dichotomy or rating scale has less than two categories, so it cannot be estimated.

1 (used for estimation)

Responses used for estimation

2 (used)

Responses in one extreme score

111-120

(facet number)

element number for facet 1

121-120

(facet number)

element number for facet 2

|

 


..1-..0

(facet number)

element number for last facet

..1-..0

(facet number)
