Abstract

This paper shows how three-mode principal compo nents analysis can be useful for the analysis of seman tic differential ratings, in particular because no sum mation is necessary over any one mode. The use of "joint plots" (a variant of the biplot) and sums-of- squares interpretations is explained and illustrated.
