CROSSTABS 323
CORR Display Pearson’s r and Spearman’s correlation coefficient in the
Symmetric Measures table. This is available for numeric data only.
KAPPA Display kappa coefficient (Kraemer, 1982) in the Symmetric Measures table.
Kappa can be computed only for square tables in which the row and column
values are identical.
RISK Display relative risk (Bishop et al., 1975) in the Risk Estimate table. Relative
risk can be calculated only for 2× 2 tables.
MCNEMAR Display a test of symmetry for square tables. The McNemar test is displayed
for 2× 2 tables, the McNemar-Bowker test for larger tables.
CMH(1*) Conditional independence and homogeneity tests. Cochran’s and the Mantel-
Haenszel statistics are computed for the test for conditional independence.
The Breslow-Day and Taron’s statistics are computed for the test for homogeneity.
For each test, the chi-squared statistic with its degrees of freedom and
asymptotic p value are computed. Mantel-Haenszel relative risk (common
odds ratio) estimate. The Mantel-Haenszel relative risk (common odds ratio)
estimate, the natural log of the estimate, the standard error of the natural log
of the estimate, the asymptotic p value, and the asymptotic confidence intervals
for common odds ratio and for the natural log of the common odds ratio
are computed. The user can specify the null hypothesis for the common odds
ratio in parentheses after the keyword. The passive default is 1. (The parameter
value must be positive.)
ALL All statistics available.
NONE No summary statistics. This is the default if STATISTICS is omitted.
METHOD Subcommand
METHOD displays additional results for each statistic requested. If no METHOD subcommand
is specified, the standard asymptotic results are displayed. If fractional weights have been specified,
results for all methods will be calculated on the weight rounded to the nearest integer.
MC Displays an unbiased point estimate and confidence interval based on the
Monte Carlo sampling method, for all statistics. Asymptotic results are also
displayed. When exact results can be calculated, they will be provided instead
of the Monte Carlo results.
CIN(n) Controls the confidence level for the Monte Carlo estimate. CIN is available
only when /METHOD=MC is specified. CIN has a default value of 99.0. You
can specify a confidence interval between 0.01 and 99.9, inclusive.
SAMPLES Specifies the number of tables sampled from the reference set when calculating
the Monte Carlo estimate of the exact p value. Larger sample sizes lead
to narrower confidence limits but also take longer to calculate. You can
specify any integer between 1 and 1,000,000,000 as the sample size.
SAMPLES has a default value of 10,000.
