Dear all,
A quick query on PCA.
I know that we get good PCA results when the variables are highly
correlated...but can we enter variables which 'tell the same story'
e.g.
Variable 1
'Have you produced an academic paper in the last year?' (Yes/No),
Variable 2 'what was your highest contribution to any academic paper in
the last year?' (None/Minor/Moderate/Major)
Could these 2 variables both be entered into a PCA?
Many thanks,
Kim.
