In van der Heijden and de Leeuw (1985) it was proposed to use loglinear analysis to detect interactions in a multiway contingency table, and to explore the form of these interactions with correspondence analysis. After performing the exploratory phase of the analysis, we will show here how the results found in this phase can be used for confirmation.
This research was conducted while the authors were visiting the Laboratoire de Statistique et Probabilité, Universite Paul Sabatier, Toulouse. This visit was partly made possible by a joint grant of the Netherlands Organisation for the Advancement of Pure Research (Z.W.O.) and the French National Center for Scientific Research (C.N.R.S.). For helpful comments, the authors are indebted to H. Caussinus, J. de Leeuw, and two anonymous reviewers.
