Hello,
I want to use MFA is to better define the structure of the interrelationships (correlations)
among the variables. I would then use
the factors to run a Cluster Analysis on the score for each forest management
unit.
So this is the structure of my data. Overall, 170 FMUs (or logging concession: I just chopped it). Data frame called IND.
It does not have the Group identification obviously but I added on top as illustration.
I would like to distinguish 6 groups in the analysis, of which #6 will always be supplementary.

QUESTIONS
1. I am having trouble defining the groups.
2. I want to use the FSC (treated and not) as a supplementary variable.
My code:
MFA(IND, group=c(3,2,3,4,1), type=c("s", rep("n",4)),
ncp=5, name.group=c("Logint","Leg”, “Comp”, “Mark", "FSC"),
num.group.sup=c(5))
> MFA(MODoneRAWNEW, group=c(3,2,3,4,1), type=c("s", rep("n",4)),
+ ncp=3, name.group=c("Logint",”Leg”,”Comp”, "Mark","FSC"),
+ num.group.sup=c(5))
Error in MFA(MODoneRAWNEW, group = c(3,2,3,4,1), type = c("s", rep("n", :
not convenient group definition
THANKS for the help! Claudia Romero
