Unexpected observations (with standardized residuals greater than Unexpected=) are listed in Table 4. Usort= controls the order in which the unexpected observations are listed.

Category or Data or Observation, i.e., the original scored response (also D, O) |
X |
x |
Step Value or Xni, i.e., the recounted value used for estimation (also V) |
E |
e |
Expected value or Pni, i.e., the modelled value computed from the measures (also P) |
R |
r |
Residual or Yni, i.e., the difference between the step value and the modelled value, Yni = Xni - Pni (also Y) |
Z |
z |
Standardized residual or Zni, i.e, the statistical unexpectedness of the observation (also S, F, T) |
U |
u |
Unexpectedness: Absolute value of standardized residual |
Example 1: In Table 4, it is often useful to sort the unexpected residuals by their facet location and size. Sort the residuals by Facet 1 major, Facet 2 minor and then Facet 3.
Usort=1,2,3
Multiple sorts and multiple listings of the residuals are obtained by placing each sort order in (). Produces two listings, one sorted by Facet 2 major, the other sorted by Facet 3.
Usort=(2,1,3),(3,2,1)
Example 2: Persons are facet 1, items are facet 2 and judges are facet 3. We want to investigate the judges one at a time, paying attention to the most unexpected residuals for each item in Table 4, then identify grossly unexpected person ratings:
Usort = (3,2,u),(u,1)
Unexpected= 3 ; only for very unexpected ratings
