TABLE 3.

Stepwise discriminant analysis of included variables—females.

Step	Entered	Lambda	df1	df2	df3	Exact F
						Statistic	df1	df2	P value
1	Vertical jump	0.82	1	1	1,566	309	1	1,566	<0.001
2	Spike jump	0.81	2	1	1,556	162	2	1,565	<0.001
3	Body height	0.8	3	1	1,556	124	3	1,564	<0.001
4	Body mass	0.8	4	1	1,556	98	4	1,563	<0.001

At each step, the variable that minimizes the overall Wilks’ lambda is entered. The maximum number of steps is 20; the minimum partial F for inclusion is 3.84; the maximum partial F for removal is 2.71; and the F level, tolerance, or VIN is insufficient for further computation.
