I have a data set with many nominal categorical variables. How do I compare them. For example. Male is 1 and female is 2. Disease A is 1, Disease B is 2 and Disease C is 3. Likewise, there are many other categorical groups which needs to be compared with disease group. Is there any other way except Chi-square test and Fischer exact test? Is there a way to create a model with multivariate analysis? Thank you for your response.
Hello Ms. Lacort. Thank you for the response. JMP allows for Multiple correspondence analysis.
Hi
Several examples were available, the measures were defined and results were interpreted in:
1. Landau, S. and Everitt, B. S.(2004). A Handbook of Statistical analyses using SPSS.
2.Howitt, D. and Cramer, D.(2008). Introduction to SPSS.

you can compare using chi-square and using mode for nominal data
