Measures of Association for Cross Classifications. II: Further Discussion and References

Abstract Our earlier discussion of measures of association for cross classifications [66] is extended in two ways. First, a number of supplementary remarks to [66] are made, including the presentation of some new measures. Second, historical and bibliographical material beyond that in [66] is critically surveyed; this includes discussion of early work in America by Doolittle and Peirce, early work in Europe by Korosy, Benini, Lipps, Deuchler and Gini, more recent work based on Shannon-Wiener information, association measures based on latent structure, and relevant material in the literatures of meteorology, ecology, sociology, and anthropology. New expressions are given for some of the earlier measures of association. * This research was supported in part by the Army, Navy, and Air Force through the Joint Services Advisory Committee for Research Groups in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, Contract No. N6ori-02035; and in part by the Office of Naval Research.
