Abstract
The nearly universal practice of testing the statistical significance of individual discriminant functions and coefficients of canonical correlation by treating the residuals after successive terms of Wilks' lambda = U = -M Σ[SUP9,SUBi=1]. In (1-r[SUBi,SUP2]) have been subtracted as if the individual components were independently chi-square distributed is shown to be logically and statistically invalid. Two suggestions for valid, but conservative, alternative procedures are considered.Keywords
