| Groups | Factor | Groups formed |
| Minimum spanning tree | Matrix | Minimum spanning tree (as a series of links and corresponding lengths) |
| Amalgamations | Matrix | Linked list of amalgamations (not available for single link/nearest neighbour method – this information is contained in the minimum spanning tree for that method) |
| Permutation | Variate | Permutation of order of the units on the dendrogram |
| Mean similarities | Symmetric matrix | Similarities between groups |
Clustering threshold
Specifies, as a percentage, at what level of similarity clusters are to be saved in the Groups factor.
Display in spreadsheet
The saved results will be displayed within a new spreadsheet.
