Overview
• Steps– Display the data in a chart– Indentify the dimensions of the comparison– Choose a representative example– Characterize the pattern– Identify exceptions– Write the description
• “Generalization, example, exception” useful for– Three-way patterns– Interaction patterns calculated from multivariate coefficients

Objectives of a GEE
• GEE = “generalization, example, exception”• Aims to describe the forest, not the trees, in a complex
pattern involving a lot of numbers– Which aspects can be summarized?– Which aspects deviate from that summary?
• In a three-way association, describe the pattern among– Two independent variables (IVs) and a dependent variable
(DV)– One IV and a series of DVs
![Page 4: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Display the data in a chart
• Create a chart of the association• Charts are the easiest way to see patterns– Which values are highest and by how much compared to
other values?– Whether trends are up, down, or level

Design issues for your chart
• Draw it to scale, so you can assess – Directionality – Size of differences and trends across values
• Organize variables in the order you will describe them– Theoretical criteria– Empirical order– See podcast on organizing data in tables and charts

Choose a representative example
• Identify one representative example as the basis for each generalization about the shape of the pattern– Must characterize many if not most values in the pattern– Not an arbitrary choice!
• Find one value of the first independent variable to use to describe the general shape of the association between the second IV and the DV. E.g.,– Hold one IV constant while you vary the other– Don’t vary values of both IVs at the same time
![Page 13: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
What does “representative” mean?
• A representative example of a general pattern will be characteristic of the association between the second IV and the DV for many if not all subgroups of that first IV. E.g., – A region that shows a time trend in prices that is similar to
that observed in several other regions– A topic for which the rank order of language groups in test
performance is the same
![Page 14: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Possible starting points for identifying representative examples
• Theoretically based– A value of particular interest for your research question– A summary measure that combines results for the various
component variables• Useful if comparing across a series of related outcomes
• Empirically based– Start at one end of an empirically organized axis, column, or
row– Overall sample, for a comparison across groups– Modal (most common) group
![Page 15: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Trial and error in identifying a representative example
• Might have to try several groups or values to find one that has a pattern that is similar to that in other groups
• If your initial choice isn’t similar to any of the others in terms of direction or magnitude, it might be an exception
• See whether other values have a pattern that can be generalized
![Page 20: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Characterize the pattern
• For your representative value of one independent variable, characterize these aspects of the association between the other independent variable and the dependent variable:– Direction– Magnitude– Statistical significance
![Page 21: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Characterizing direction in across-sectional comparison
• Which categories of the independent variable (IV) have the highest and lowest values of the dependent variable (DV)?
• For multiple category IVs, describe the rank order of categories according to values of the DV
![Page 22: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Characterizing direction for trends
• Describe whether each line slopes – Upward– Downward– Is approximately level– Follows a standard statistical distribution • e.g., a normal curve
– Asymptotically approaches some value
![Page 23: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Characterizing magnitude
• Do some behind-the-scenes math to measure the size of differences between values you are comparing. E.g.,– Difference (subtraction or OLS coefficient)– Ratio (division, or odds ratio from logit model)– Percentage difference or change
• See chapters on types of quantitative comparisons to help you choose the kind of calculation that best suits your objectives
![Page 24: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Take notes about direction and magnitude
• On a hardcopy chart, make notes about:– Direction: Use “>,” “<,” “=,” or arrows – Size: Jot results of calculations to compare values
• To help you later write a correct, complete description, mention– Units– Type of calculation
– Shape: Verbs, adjectives, adverbs, analogies, or metaphors that capture the shape of the pattern
– Statistical significance: of specific contrasts, marked with • Symbols• Shading (highlighter)
• Don’t worry about full sentences at this point
![Page 25: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Identify exceptions
• If parts of your table or chart depart substantially from the general pattern you have identified, they are exceptions
• Exceptions can occur in terms of– Direction– Size– Statistical significance
![Page 26: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Exceptions in direction of a trend• The median sales prices dipped in the early 1990s in
the West, but continued upward or remained level in each of the other three regions– The West was the exception
![Page 27: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Exceptions in magnitudeof a cross-sectional difference
• The difference between odds ratios across racial groups is much larger among the non-poor than in the other two income groups (compare brackets 1 and 2 to bracket 3)– Generalize based on the two
income groups for which the racial gap in ER use is similar (poor and near poor)
– Non-poor are the exception
![Page 28: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Exceptions in statistical significance
• Examples of this type of exception– All but one of the coefficients in a regression model are
statistically significant at p < 0.05– Only one of the coefficients in a regression model is
statistically significant• The generalization is lack of statistical significance
– In stratified models of the same outcome for several groups, the coefficient on one or more specific independent variables are statistically significant only for one group
![Page 29: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Write the description
• Organize the material into paragraphs– One paragraph for each major pattern to be described
• Write topic sentences for each paragraph– Introduce the substantive concepts to be discussed in that paragraph
• Write evidentiary sentences to describe the– General pattern– Any exceptions
• In those descriptions, mention – Direction– Magnitude– Statistical significance
![Page 30: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Wording for a generalization• If a pattern characterizes many of the numbers you are
summarizing, introduce the generalization with– “In general, . . .” – “Typically, . . .” – “By and large . . .”
– If the pattern characterizes all groups, say so!– “In every region studied, . . .” – “Throughout the entire period of observation . . .” – “Regardless of [characteristic], . . .”
![Page 31: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Wording to present the example
• To document a pattern– Introduce numeric evidence– Refer to the table or chart that reports all of the numbers
• E.g., – “For instance, . . . [numeric contrast, with the W’s specified].”– “For example, as shown in Figure X . . . [numeric fact, with its
W’s attached].”
• Reminder: “the W’s” refer to when, where, who, and what
![Page 32: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Wording to introduce exception(s)
• To introduce exceptions to a general pattern, write– “An exception [to that pattern] is . . . ” – “On the other hand, . . .” – “However, . . .”
• E.g., “In seven out of 10 years studied, [general pattern and example]. However, in the other three years, [contrasting pattern = exception].”
![Page 33: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Wording for exceptions in direction
• Some exceptions are literally the opposite of the pattern described in the generalization. E.g., – A falling rather than rising trend– A deficit instead of excess for one group compared to another
• Having described the direction of the general pattern, introduce such exceptions with phrases such as:– “On the contrary, . . .” – “Conversely, . . .”
![Page 34: The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition. Implementing “generalization, example, exception”: Behind-the-scenes work for summarizing](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebd5503460f94bc6478/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis, 2nd Edition.
Summary
• Use a systematic, step-by-step approach to identify which parts of a broad pattern are– Similar to one another– Different from one another
• In terms of direction, magnitude, and statistical significance
• Create a chart or table that you refer to in your prose description of that pattern
• Organize material into substantively cohesive paragraphs• Use vocabulary and phrasing to differentiate general
patterns from exceptions
