Diagnostics information: Paired preference test
When you run a statistical test on a table, UNICOM Intelligence Reporter can create diagnostics information that shows the
p values and some of the intermediate figures used to calculate the statistics. The information is in comma-delimited format, so you can open it in Microsoft Excel and perform calculations on the data. The information varies according to the test. Here is the information for the
paired preference test example:
