Multidimensional Scaling Analysis and an Application

Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the factors affecting student’s failure. For this, a survey study was carried out. In the questionnaire applied to people of all ages and occupations living in Turkey between 2013 and 2015, inferences were made on the answers of 4183 people, 2928 of whom were men and 1255 were women, regarding the relationship between 26 variables that are closely related to the success factor. In this study, non-metric multidimensional scaling technique was used considering the Euclidean distance. This is because the data is not quantitative and smaller size solutions can be obtained. As a result of the analysis, Kruskal's stress value was observed as 0.00 and no significant difference was observed between the variables. Therefore, the observation of stress values in the range of (0-0.025) clearly reveals that there is a "complete" agreement between the variables. Another one words, the measure of the actual figure compatibility chart obtained S=0.00 and shows full compliance. In this case, we can say that the results obtained adequately reflect the data set we have.
