Variable representation along the first four MCA dimensions showing that (a) Dim1 and 2 together represent Test.BedNet, Treat.BedNet, malaria.control, IRS and I.Res.Spr, the five most important predictors of malaria identified MCA, adequately while (b) Dim 3 and Dim 4 represent only malaria.control adequately. The first two dimensions therefore explain most of the inertia (variation) contained in the data. Number.BedNet, Use.BedNet, O.N.LstNight, Malaria. Children and Malaria. Adults are supplementary variables added for completeness (see Fig. 4)
