Control Marker Selection Method

Use this drop-down menu to specify the method to list control markers sorted from the most important to least important if the marker that should be in the list is known.

Select Using SAS Data Set when you already know which markers to use. You must then specify an ordered list of the control markers in the Control Marker Data Set - Sorted Marker List field to build the SAS data set.

Select Simple Regression , Forward Regression , or Stepwise Regression , to use one of these methods to specify the control markers and their order (list according to importance).

Note : If a regression method is used, a SAS data set with suffix _cml appended is created in the Output Folder containing the list of control markers.
