Identifying Needs Based Segments Using MaxDiff

In this session you will learn how to create needs-based segments using a combination of MaxDiff and Latent Class Analysis. We will cover why we suggest to use MaxDiff for this kind of project and how Latent Class Analysis can be used to generate the segments. We will also instruct attendees on how to utilize Naïve Bayes to generate a typing tool for use in future studies.

Making the Most of MaxDiff

As MaxDiff usage continues to grow, researchers continue to create interesting variations to the traditional MaxDiff methodology to handle specific usage cases. In this session we’ll talk about some of the most popular variations to handle large sets of items, irrelevant items, and how to anchor MaxDiff scores to behaviors.
