Hi,
i calculate some calculations for a specific target variable.
People should rate for 3 things some independends and one dependend
variable. People should not difference in importances as possible
between the 1.,2.and the 3.Chose.
Now i filter all people which rate the same thing (i.e. a
Product/Company) and calculate the different correlations dependend
from the thing is rated as 1./2./3. or all togehter!
Not a surprise for me are the different values in correlation, but
make the use of correlations for this doubtful.
What is more a cause for this results'S ?
(1) The small N's
(2) The social-psychological phenomen that people
want prefer something and not really indifferent when they ask for 3
rating's relative to a product/company.
Result:
So people who rate a product/company as 1. and others as 2. or 3.
( what is not a ranked order but it works neverthless in consciousness )
must be different analyze, because their exist different attitudes ?
