pairs using the Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test in a protected
fashion, i.e. following a significant Friedman Two-Way
ANOVA Test (Church & Wike, 1980). All computations were
done with SPSS sub-program NPAR TESTS (Hull & Nie, 1981).
All four Friedman Tests were statistically significant (p <
.0l). The rank I of the criteria for the recall of
things owned appears in Table 6, for recall of things not
owned in Table 7, for the recall difference scores in Table
8, and for explicit judgements in Table 9. The results of
the Wilcoxon tests of pair-wise comparisons appear in the
right-most columns of the tables. The criteria codes
indicate the nearest following criterion that is
significantly different (p = .01). For example, in Table 6,
criterion #2, ‘Assertion’, ie not different from
'Familiarity', but is from 'Knowledge' and all subsequent
criteria. Criteria that are not statistically different
from each other are not separated by a space in the tables.
Cluster Analysis
It was also important to examine the interrelationships
among the criteria judgements to determine whether or not
there might be coherences among sub-groups of criteria. In
a parametric analysis, this might have been done by factor
analysis or discriminant analysis. In the present study,
cluster analysis was used because it requires no assumptions
of multivariate normality in the distributions of the data.
