因素分析的新方法──微分·连锁替代法

A NOVEL METHOD OF FACTOR ANALYSIS:DIFFERENTIAL AND CHAIN SUPERSESSION APPROACH

在传统因素分析法──连锁替代法的基础上，融进微分概念产生的“微分·连锁作代法”，能简明、准确地进行因素分析．它超越了传统方法只适用于因素间是加、减、来关系的束缚，推广到经济活动中最常见的四则运算范围，而且因素愈多，关系愈复杂，其优越性愈显著．

On the basis of the traditional method of factor analysis(Chain Supersession method)and by incorporating the concept of differential,the paper proposed a novel method of factor analysis,which is called differential and chain supersession(DCS)and could carry out factor analysis concisely and accurately.DCS oversteps the boundary of the traditional method which only suits for the relation of addition,substraction and multiplication among factors.It extends to the four fundamental arithmetic operations in economic activities.Furthermore,the method displays more merits with the increase of the number of factors and the complexity of factor relations.
