This package contains the program paran which performs Horn's parallel analysis of components/factors.

This version of paran has been developed for Stata versions 8+.

All feature and bug requests are welcome and will be considered.

To manually update or install:

1. In Stata (i) type ado dir and hit ENTER, and (2) type ado uninstall [#], where '#' is the number of paran reported in step (i). Repeat both (i) and (ii) until there are no more versions of paran installed.
2. In Stata type personal and hit ENTER.
3. Download paran.ado, paran.hlp, and paran.copying to the directory reported by the personal command.

   Alternately, you may download a .7z archive of the current paran package ado, .hlp, and .dta files.

You will need to check the web site, and repeat these steps periodically as new versions become available.

paran.ado, and paran.hlp are part of paran.
