Hi,
I am using canoncorr function in MATLAB to perform the canonical correlation analysis. I think I understand most of the outputs (A, B, r, U and V) after performing the analysis. I noticed that there is another output I get, which is stats, after I run the analysis: [A,B,r,U,V,stats] = canoncorr(X,Y).
As per the information on this page: https://www.mathworks.com/help/stats/canoncorr.html
there is very limited/no information (except the definitions) about the outputs within 'stats' here, and I do not understand what does all these parameters within the stats output mean here (e.g. Wilks, ..., pChisq), in particular, my analysis shows a p-value of 0.037 within the stats, so what does that mean, and how can I report that (along with other outputs from stats) for publication purpose?
Thanks.
