news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Can anyone tell me why one would convert a semantic differential scale =

negatively worded statement? The model is multiple regression.
Thanks, DW

water (from your supervising professor's closet) and lo and behold it =
becomes ratio data that can be analyzed by regression analysis. If that =
is the case, there is no limit to ones imagination on the use of or on =
the extension of the original data.
