- Description
- The main goal of this study is to examine Nobel Prize data by exploring and studying the association between the Country of the nominated individual (or of the nominated team) and the Discipline in which the Nobel Prize was awarded. The sample studied comprises the eight the most developed countries that received at least one Nobel Prize in the period from 1901 to 2018; these being Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia, British Isles and the USA. The variables Country and Discipline are cross-classified to form a two-way contingency table. Simple correspondence analysis is performed to explore the nature of the association between these two variables.
