This chapter outlines conceptual and mathematical underpinnings of local indicators of spatial association, or LISA statistics. An empirical application shows how LISAs can be used to detect localized spatial processes impacting students and campuses.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
