Abstract: Abstract Discuss how to conduct confirmatory MDS analysis of profile similarities in the context of configuration comparison. Model fit between hypothesized and observed profiles can be assessed with respect to local fit index rather than global fit index. Local fit can be assessed using correlation r, t-test or ANOVA, and F-test. An example is provided to demonstrate the idea.
