[edit] The larger Package: Tools for Latent Discrete Structure Analysis [R]
http://intersci.ss.uci.edu/wiki/drw/ldsa_0.1-2-EntailmentByCarterButts.zip entailment package in R (provisional) Carter Butts (ldsa_0.1-2.zip ldsa_0.1-2.tar.gz)
The current package is alpha ware, but the entailment stuff works. A good place to start vis a vis the help (for the parts which are documented) is sea.table. ----Carter 05:00, 9 January 2008.

These data are from the Standard Cross-Cultural Sample. These gender orderings have been replicated in archaeological studies. Download data in these formats: spss excel
3-way interaction: This test, for binary variables, is used prior to entailment analysis to verify the absence of greater-than-random occurrence of higher-order interactions.
