Somewhere along the line, you have been confused.
You're in good company though. Factor analysis and PCA are different entities entirely.

Dear listmates, i've done a pca analisys in R (1.8 v.) with the command

pca(Matrix, cent=FALSE, scle=FALSE)

I have obtained a v matrix very different from the component matrix resulted by a factor analysis in SPSS, unrotated and with a extraction from a correlation matrix. Any clues about this diference?
Thanks in advance,
Alex.
