Welcome to the Companion Website

This site is intended to enhance your use of Using R with Multivariate Statistics, by Randall E. Schumacker. Please note that all the materials on this site are especially geared toward maximizing your understanding of the material. 

Using R with Multivariate Statistics is a quick guide to using R, free-access software available for Windows and Mac operating systems that allows users to customize statistical analysis. Designed to serve as a companion to a more comprehensive text on multivariate statistics, this book helps students and researchers in the social and behavioral sciences get up to speed with using R. It provides data analysis examples, R code, computer output, and explanation of results for every multivariate statistical application included. In addition, R code for some of the data set examples used in more comprehensive texts is included, so students can run examples in R and compare results to those obtained using SAS, SPSS, or STATA. A unique feature of the book is the photographs and biographies of famous persons in the field of multivariate statistics.
