Dear Melanie,
> Does anyone know how to get SAS to output the proportion of variance > explained by each axis when using Proc MDS? I am afraid this is generally not possible, simply because NMDS does not partition variation along the axes. You can obtain something like this when you rotate resulting NMDS solution afterwards, but not from the primary result of NMDS. > Thank you. > Melanie Petr Smilauer --------------------------------------------------------------- International course Multivariate Analysis of Ecological Data (January 2007): http://regent.jcu.cz New book by course lecturers: "Multivariate analysis of ecological data using CANOCO" at <http://uk.cambridge.org/catalogue/catalogue.asp?isbn=0521891086> or <http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/tg/stores/detail/-/books/0521891086> CanoDraw for Windows 4.0 http://www.canodraw.com is part of Canoco for Windows 4.5 http://www.canoco.com
