<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV>Hi,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I did cluster anaysis on a data set and came up with 4 clusters of employees based on their 16 'work styles' variables. When I do profiling of these clusters on their demographic information, I do not see much of a difference among the clusters. So. I attempted to do PROC ANOVA among the clusters using the demographic variables. Rightly, hardly on two of the 15 demographic variables I used, Schefe Test shows any difference in the clusters.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My queries:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>1. Is it correct to try profiling the clusters on their demographic information or should one do it on the 16 'work style' variables?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>2. Am I right in using the PROC ANOVA to see the differences among the clusters?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This is for an assignment I got in class. I am not cheating by posing this query here coz I am tryiong to do more than what the assignment ask us to do. The above mentioned queries are NOT part of the assignement.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Expert help appreciated. Thanks.</DIV>
