P. 56: "The follow-up survey of growth of physical constitution of boys and girls for nine years (in the prefecture of Chiba) was conducted by a lecturer Hiroaki Terao at the Faculty of Medicine, Teikyo University. Here we use only the girls' data (6 years old to 14 years old).
x(i,j,k) means a
numerical value for
the jth-measurement,
the ith-year and
the kth-individual, where
J=4 measurements: j=1 height, j=2 weight,
j=3 chest girth, j=4 sitting height,
I=9 follow-up years and
K=32 girls (size of sample).
Hayashi's growth curve data of Japanese girls.
A 3-way data array X = (x(i,j,k)) has the following form
|-----------|i=1 |-----------| |i=2 |-----------| | |.. | | | |.. | | |____|i=I=9 k=K=32 | |____| k=2 |___________| k=1 j=1,..,J=4
j=1,..,J=4 |-----------|i=1 | |i=2 | |.. k= 1 | |.. |___________|i=I=9 |-----------|i=1 | |i=2 | |.. k= 2 | |.. |___________|i=I=9 |-----------|i=1 | |i=2 | |.. k=32 | |.. |___________|i=I=9
