I wrote some rough functions for principal factor, principal-components factor, and iterated principal factor analysis. I think they are workable, the same results as stata can be retained.
In addition, functions for gls and uls factor analysis is in progress, which is based on the algorithms of SPSS. I get the same results by the gls factor analysis, and quite similiar result by the uls factor analysis. 2007/6/1, Sigbert Klinke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Hi, > > is there any other routine for factor analysis in R then factanal? > Basically I'am interested in another extraction method then the maximum > likelihood method and looking for unweighted least squares. > > Thanks in advance > > Sigbert Klinke > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. > -- Ronggui Huang Department of Sociology Fudan University, Shanghai, China ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
