Specifically, what is the difference between
A) POPDATA=1, LOCPRIOR=1, LOCDATA=0, LOCISPOP=1 and
B) POPDATA=0, LOCPRIOR=1, LOCDATA=1, LOCISPOP=0 ?
For the clustering algorithm and calculating Q, I think it is the same. In both cases, the Locprior model uses the sampling location information, only from formally different sources (POPDATA or LOCDATA column). The further difference is that the A settings generate Q values not only for individuals but also for pre-defined populations.
Am I right?
Thank you.
In the context of structural analysis software or programs, "POPDATA=1" and "LOCDATA=1" are typically not standard or widely recognized settings. The meaning of these settings may depend on the specific software or program you are using, and they might not have a universally accepted interpretation. Therefore, it's essential to refer to the documentation or user manual of the software or program to understand their precise definitions and usage.
In structural analysis software, settings and parameters can vary significantly from one program to another, and they often have specific meanings and purposes determined by the developers of that software. Without additional context or information about the software you're using, it's challenging to provide a definitive explanation of "POPDATA=1" and "LOCDATA=1."
To clarify the meanings and purposes of these settings, please consult the documentation or user manual provided by the software developer. Additionally, consider reaching out to the software's technical support or community forums for assistance if you require further clarification or guidance on how to use these settings effectively within your specific structural analysis application.
Thank you. As mentioned in the question, I am using Structure (version 2.3).
