Multivariate Analysis: Factor Analysis


Tables Tab

The Tables tab is shown in Figure 27.6. You can use the Tables tab to display the following tables that summarize the results of the analysis:

Simple descriptive statistics


specifies whether to display the mean and standard deviation for each variable. This corresponds to the SIMPLE option in the PROC FACTOR statement.

Correlation matrix


specifies whether to display the correlation matrix. This corresponds to the CORR option in the PROC FACTOR statement.

Eigenvectors


specifies whether to display the eigenvectors of the reduced correlation matrix. This corresponds to the EIGENVECTORS option in the PROC FACTOR statement.

Kaiser’s measure of sampling adequacy


specifies whether to display partial correlations between each pair of variables (controlling for all other variables), and Kaiser’s measure of sampling adequacy. This corresponds to the MSA option in the PROC FACTOR statement.

Factor scoring coefficients


specifies whether to display the factor scoring coefficients. This corresponds to the SCORE option in the PROC FACTOR statement.

Residual and partial correlations


specifies whether to display the residual correlation matrix and the associated partial correlation matrix. This corresponds to the RESIDUALS option in the PROC FACTOR statement.
