I. Introduction
Dependent variables
7 All income statement data are from the Income and Dividend
Report, December 31, and all balance sheet data are from the Report of
Condition, December 31.
8 Since the unit of observation is the market, i.e., performance
measures are the sum over the sample banks in the markets, portfolio
differences among banks do not pose such a serious problem for
comparing profitability as is the case when individual banks are the unit
of observation. Bank data meeting this criterion were not available for
20 of the 187 SMSAs investigated in the original analysis.

Dependent variables
Two basic dependent variables are used for testing purposes.
One is a rivalry measure that is used in order to permit compari-
son with the earlier "links" study by Heggestad and Rhoades.
The other is a traditional measure of market performance (profit
or price) in order to permit comparison with the modified version
of Heggestad-Rhoades as outlined in approach #1, above.
Independent variables
Of course, the crucial independent variable in this analysis is
the measure of multimarket links, i.e., the number of times that
the leading firms in a market meet one another in other markets.
The method for calculating the link measure is the same as that
described in approach #1.
The remaining independent variables are intended to control
for financial statement, market condition, and regulatory dif-
ferences among markets. Five variables are included to account
for average balance sheet items for the banks in a market. 22 These
are included because each has the potential to affect measured
prices and profits and because each may vary among markets.
They are: time deposits/total time and savings deposits, total
loans/total assets, one-to-four family real estate loans/total
loans, loans to individuals/total loans, public deposits/total de-
mand deposits.23
