Abstract

In using usual univariate and bivariate analyses of a population’s life
styles researchers will encounter major limitations because these
phenomena are essentially complex. This article uses multivariate statistical
analysis, specifically Multiple Correspondence Analysis, with a two-fold
purpose. First of all, it aims to analyse the general evolution of life styles in
11,13 and 15-year old Spanish schoolchildren between 1986 and 1994.
Secondly, it evaluates the usefulness of MCA in studying this evolution.
