The Geometry of Path Coefficients and Correlations

Biometrical Journal, 1982
AbstractIn the present paper, a generalized cosine formula is obtained for the difference between two angles in a k‐dimensional Euclidean space, which is utilized to derive one of the principles of path analysis, namely, the correlation between two random variables is the sum of all connecting paths between them.

An Investigation of the Accuracy of Standardized Path Coefficients

The Journal of General Psychology, 2011
Given the popular and ever-increasing use of path analytic research paradigms in the social sciences, it is desirable to conduct an investigation into the accuracy of the standardized path coefficients that are often the end-product of these paradigms. In pursuit of this goal, population parameters were preset concerning the correlations between all of

Fisher, Wright, and Path Coefficients

Biometrics, 1968
The method of path coefficients is essentially a device for analysis or decomposition of a correlation coefficient under a structure of causal relationships among linearly related variables. This memorial note shows that Sir Ronald in 1918 had a clear notion that a correlation coefficient may consist of several 'factors,' each corresponding to a ...

Path Coefficients and Path Regressions: Alternative or Complementary Concepts?

Biometrics, 1960
(1) The authors concur with Tukey in treating the standardized and concrete forms of correlational statistics as if they were alternative conceptions between which it is necessary to make a choice. It has always seemed to me that these should be looked upon as two aspects of a single theory corresponding to different modes of interpretation which ...

Path Coefficient Analysis in Sugarcane

Journal of the Institute of Agriculture and Animal Science, 2007
A study was conducted to estimate heritability of selected traits, and determine direct and indirect effects of selected plant traits on cane yield and sucrose content in sugarcane ( Saccharum officinarum L.). Sixteen clones were evaluated in a replicated field experiment under irrigated conditions at Sugarcane Research Program, Jitpur, Nepal in 1999 ...

The Interpretation of Path Coefficients

Sociology, 1974
In his attack on my investigations of the method of path analysis Mr. Allan* commits a number of errors of logic which invalidate his criticisms. However, before describing these errors I wish to comment briefly on some of his more general observations.

PATH COEFFICIENT ANALYSIS IN BLACKGRAM

Madras Agricultural Journal, 1992
Variability, heritability and genetic advance were estimated for sixteen characters in twenty blackgram (Urd) types. phenotypic and genotypic coefficient of variation for dry leaf weight was high followed by seed yield and leaf area. Genetic advance was high for seed yield followed by dry leaf weight.
