kinshipdelta

kinshipscales

Percentages of how often 15 kinship terms were not grouped together by college students including three external scales.

datasets

Implements the following approaches for multidimensional scaling (MDS) based on stress minimization using majorization (smacof): ratio/interval/ordinal/spline MDS on symmetric dissimilarity matrices, MDS with external constraints on the configuration, individual differences scaling (idioscal, indscal), MDS with spherical restrictions, and ratio/interval/ordinal/spline unfolding (circular restrictions, row-conditional). Various tools and extensions like jackknife MDS, bootstrap MDS, permutation tests, MDS biplots, gravity models, unidimensional scaling, drift vectors (asymmetric MDS), classical scaling, and Procrustes are implemented as well.

kinshipdelta function

Dissimilarity matrix of 15 kinship terms and data frame with the following external scales:
Gender (1 = male, 2 = female)
Generation (-2 = two back, -1 = one back, 0 = same generation, 1 = one ahead, 2 = two ahead)
Degree (1 = first, 2 = second, 3 = third, 4 = fourth)
