  14. In response to Patrick Haggard's question:
  15. Try combining the two variables in one, e.g.,
  16. in SPSS you would do:
  17. compute combxy = 10*x + y
  18. or
  19. compute combxy = x + y/10
  20. In the above examples it is assumed that you have single
  21. digit variables. You could of course change the combinations
  22. 'slightly for 2- or more digits.
