Problem Note 31892: Oblique rotations might create incorrect Standardized Rotated Factor Loading Matrix, Rotated Factor Correlation Matrix
If you run PROC TCALIS (
experimental) using the FACTOR statement to run an exploratory factor analysis, the Standardized Rotated Factor Loading Matrix and the Rotated Factor Correlation Matrix might be incorrect if you specify ROTATE= a rotation that is oblique. (The problem affects oblique rotations only - orthogonal rotations are not affected.)
There are no errors or warnings to indicate that the values are not correct.
There is no work-around.
For a list of available rotations and details regarding conditions under which a rotation will be oblique or othogonal, see:
