Abstract
Salient features are outlined of hierarchical log-linear models appropriate to the analysis of associations between categorical variables. Comparisons are made with alternative methods, and the rationale of the Aitkin simultaneous test procedure for minimal model selection is discussed in detail and compared with screening and stepwise selection strategies.Keywords
