SocGrades: Grades in a Sociology Course

Description

The data set SocGrades contains four outcome measures on student performance in an introductory sociology course together with six potential predictors. These data were used by Marascuilo and Levin (1983) for an example of canonical correlation analysis, but are also suitable as examples of multivariate multiple regression, MANOVA, MANCOVA and step-down analysis in multivariate linear models.

Examples

data(SocGrades)
# basic MLM
grades.mod <- lm(cbind(midterm1, midterm2, final, eval) ~ 
	class + sex + gpa + boards + hssoc + pretest, data=SocGrades)
	
Anova(grades.mod, test="Roy")

clr <- c("red", "blue", "darkgreen", "magenta", "brown", "black", "darkgray")
heplot(grades.mod, col=clr)
pairs(grades.mod, col=clr)
