Hi R-people, I try using mca (multiple correspondence analysis) in evocation data (data base feminino2.csv attach in this mail).
Well in this database have 4 evocations for each 120 persons. If I use this script: base<-read.csv("feminino2.csv") require(MASS) plot(mca(base,abbrev=T),rows = F) Work, but result in a ugly plot, so I try extract levels with low frequency: niveis<-unique(c(levels(base$p1),levels(base$p2),levels(base $p3),levels(base$p4))) v<-table(factor(base$p1,levels=niveis))+ table(factor(base $p2,levels=niveis))+table(factor(base$p3,levels=niveis))+ n2<-niveis[v>=5] #where 5 is cutoff frequency evoc.df<-data.frame(factor(base$p1,levels=n2),factor(base $p2,levels=n2),factor(base$p3,levels=n2),factor(base$p4,levels=n2)) names(evoc.df)<-c("p1","p2","p3","p4") plot(mca(evoc.df,abbrev=T),rows = F) Don't work and result in a error: Error in svd(X) : infinite or missing values in 'x' Where I worng? Anybody help me? Thanks in advance -- Bernardo Rangel Tura, M.D,MPH,Ph.D National Institute of Cardiology Brazil
