Profile Settings|Small Sample Size

Note: Changes made to Profile Settings only apply to "new" jobs created using the modified profile and will have no effect on "existing" job files. Use Setup|Job Settings or Setup|Globally Modify Tables to make changes to existing job files.

In Setup|Profile Settings, you can specify options for suppressing/denoting cells and statistics based on limits you assign using the Small Sample Size tab.

Note: WinCross uses the unrounded number when determining if a value meets the threshold for "less than" the specified value. For example, If the actual value is 2.999 and WinCross rounds this value to 3.0 based on displaying only one decimal, the rounded 3.0 will be denoted/suppressed as "less than" 3.

Column display suppression

Choose Suppress display of column values when the: if you want to suppress values based on the Frequency or Horizontal percent total for each banner column.
Choose Denote column values when the: if you want to denote values based on the Frequency or Horizontal percent total for each banner column. Values will shown and denoted with the character(s) specified in Text to add to suppressed/denoted cells.

Frequency (base) - Suppresses/denotes all cells for a banner column when the total Frequency (or base) for that column is less than the value specified in is less than. The Frequency for the banner column will not be suppressed/denoted. Only the cells under the column meeting the limit specified will be suppressed/denoted. The character(s) specified in Text to add to suppressed/denoted cells will display in place of (suppressed) or with (denoted) the original value.
Effective sample size - Suppresses/denotes all cells for a banner column when the total Effective sample size for that column is less than the value specified in is less than. The Effective sample size (if displayed) for the banner column will not be suppressed/denoted. Only the cells under the column meeting the limit specified will be suppressed/denoted. The character(s) specified in Text to add to suppressed/denoted cells will display in place of (suppressed) or with (denoted) the original value.

Note: Effective sample size is only applicable for weighted tables.

Horizontal percent - Suppresses/denotes all cells for a banner column when the total Horizontal percent for that column is less than the value specified in is less than. The Horizontal percent for the banner column will not be suppressed/denoted. Only the cells under the column meeting the limit specified will be suppressed/denoted. The character(s) specified in Text to add to suppressed/denoted cells will display in place of (suppressed) or with (denoted) the original value.

Cell display suppression

Choose Suppress display of a cell value when the: if you want to suppress values based on the Frequency, Vertical percent, Horizontal percent or Constant percent of a table cell.
Choose Denote a cell value when the: if you want to denote values based on the Frequency, Vertical percent, Horizontal percent or Constant percent of a table cell. Values will shown and denoted with the character(s) specified in Text to add to suppressed/denoted cells.

Frequency - Suppresses/denotes any cell when the Frequency for that cell is less than the value specified in is less than. The character(s) specified in Text to add to suppressed/denoted cells will display in place of (suppressed) or with (denoted) the original value.
Vertical percent - Suppresses/denotes any cell when the Vertical percent for that cell is less than the value specified in is less than. The character(s) specified in Text to add to suppressed/denoted cells will display in place of (suppressed) or with (denoted) the original value.
Horizontal percent - Suppresses/denotes any cell when the Horizontal percent for that cell is less than the value specified in is less than. The character(s) specified in Text to add to suppressed/denoted cells will display in place of (suppressed) or with (denoted) the original value.
Constant percent - Suppresses/denotes any cell when the Constant percent for that cell is less than the value specified in is less than. The character(s) specified in Text to add to suppressed/denoted cells will display in place of (suppressed) or with (denoted) the original value.

Show suppression text for blank cells - Include blank cells when evaluating Column display suppression and Cell display suppression. Blank cells will only be suppressed/denoted when this option is selected.

Text to add to suppressed/denoted cells - Specify up to three characters to display in suppressed/denoted cells based on banner column or cell limits. # is the default Text to add to suppressed/denoted cells.

Show footnote regarding suppressed display - Choose this option to display a footnote describing the cell suppression specifications. For example, if your suppression specifications are based on the Frequency for a cell being less than 20 and the Text to add to suppressed cells is a # character, the following footnote will display: "#" denotes a cell value which was suppressed because its frequency was less than 20.

Column testing suppression - Choose Suppress statistical testing on a column when the: if you want to suppress significance indicators based on the Frequency or Horizontal percent total for each banner column.

Frequency (base) - Suppresses all significance indicators for a banner column when the total Frequency (or base) for that column is less than the value specified in is less than. The Frequency for the banner column will not be suppressed. Only the significance indicators under the column meeting the suppression limit specified will be suppressed. The character(s) specified in Text to display in suppressed cells will display in place of the significance indicators.
Effective sample size - Suppresses all significance indicators for a banner column when the total Effective sample size for that column is less than the value specified in is less than. The Effective sample size (if displayed) for the banner column will not be suppressed/denoted. Only the significance indicators under the column meeting the limit specified will be suppressed. The character(s) specified in Text to display in suppressed cells will display in place of the significance indicators.

Note: Effective sample size is only applicable for weighted tables.

Horizontal percent - Suppresses all significance indicators for a banner column when the Horizontal percent for that column is less than the value specified in is less than. The Horizontal percent for the banner column will not be suppressed. Only the significance indicators under the column meeting the suppression limit specified will be suppressed. The character(s) specified in Text to display in suppressed cells will display in place of the significance indicators.

Cell testing suppression - Choose Suppress statistical testing on a cell value when the: if you want to suppress values based on the Frequency, Vertical percent or Horizontal percent of a table cell.

Frequency - Suppresses all significance indicators for a cell when the total Frequency (or base) for that cell is less than the value specified in is less than. The character(s) specified in Text to display in suppressed cells will display in place of the significance indicators.
Vertical percent - Suppresses all significance indicators for a cell when the Vertical percent for that cell is less than the value specified in is less than. The character(s) specified in Text to display in suppressed cells will display in place of the significance indicators.
Horizontal percent - Suppresses all significance indicators for a cell when the Horizontal percent for that cell is less than the value specified in is less than. The character(s) specified in Text to display in suppressed cells will display in place of the significance indicators.

Text to display in suppressed cells - Specify up to three characters to display in suppressed cells based on banner column or cell limits. # is the default Text to display in suppressed cells.

Show footnote regarding suppressed testing - Choose this option to display a footnote describing the cell suppression specifications. For example, if your suppression specifications are based on the Frequency for a cell being less than 20 and the Text to display in suppressed cells is a # character, the following footnote will display: "#" denotes a cell for which statistical testing was suppressed because its frequency was less than 20.
