I would suggest looking for some summary texts on these analyses.  The
Sage books found on this page
http://www.sagepub.co.uk/shopping/catalogue.asp?catalogueid=236
regarding your topic can be used to give you a vocabulary that will give
you access to SAS manual index keywords that will lead you further into
the abyss.  With luck, you are, or are working, with a statistician who
know what he or she wants in these areas.

Good luck.
