First, the operations of data collection and preparation are described. Next, instructions for data analysis using the ALSCAL procedure (Takane, Young and DeLeeuw, 1977), found in SPSS, are detailed. Overall, a description of useful commands, measures and graphs is provided. Emphasis is made on experimental designs and program use, rather than the description of techniques in an algebraic or geometrical fashion. http://www.tqmp.org/Content/vol02-1/p026/p026.pdf Statistics Multidimensional scaling
