Table 9. Assignment to the minority class: Odds of incorrectly assigned subjects to correctly assigned subjects.

N	MD=0.5	MD=1.0	MD=1.5	MD=2.0
Equal factor variances (var(F_qC₁) = 1)
100	17.79	19.47	14.41	8.88
300	15.45	6.76	4.75	1.54
1000	6.68	2.96	1.21	0.63

Unequal factor variances (var(F_qC₁) = 5)
100	3.82	3.91	4.78	4.57
300	0.83	0.35	0.43	0.38
1000	0.19	0.17	0.15	0.12

Note. Table entries are average odds of class 2 subjects who are incorrectly assigned to class 1 and class 1 subjects who are correctly assigned to class 1 for imbalanced class proportion conditions in blocks B (upper panel) and D(lower panel). Ideally, the values would be close to zero.
