Abstract
A complex view aimed at the integration of the individual results of the present chapter soon reaches its limits on the statistical level. Combining only a few characteristics from all individual spheres to see whether they occur for each individual subject would automatically entail very small subgroups, and finally only individual cases. This dilemma also applies in principle for studies with a significantly larger number of subjects. The solution provided by multivariate methods such as factor analysis, which calculate statistically related characteristics as “factors” - whether they actually occur together for each individual subject or not, was not applied in the present study as a matter of principle (see Part III, Sect.1) and for methodological reasons (see Part I, Sect. 4). Instead, links connecting the individ¬ual spheres are established, as has already been done in part (see Sect. 2 above), and the concurrence of particularly important criteria from the various spheres is examined (see Fig.1).
