Issue/Introduction
Can matrix data be used for input instead of raw data?
Resolution
Yes. Statistica supports a variety of matrix file types as input data (e.g., for Multiple Regression, Factor Analysis, Reliability/Item Analysis, and other modules). Matrix files can be edited in the spreadsheet (as if they were raw data files); however, in order to be properly interpret it as matrices, they need to meet specific content and format conditions (depending on the matrix type). Statistica also supports the multiple matrix data file format for input in procedures (such as Structural Equation Modeling) that support matrix data for groups.
Note that matrix data that meet the specific content and format conditions are automatically saved in Statistica Matrix Spreadsheet (*.smx) format.
