EFA-class: Class For Rotated Results from EFA

Description

This class contains the results of rotated exploratory factor analysis

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created via the orthRotate or oblqRotate function.

Slots

loading:

Rotated standardized factor loading matrix

rotate:

Rotation matrix

gradRotate:

The gradient of the objective function at the rotated loadings

convergence:

Convergence status

phi:

Factor correlation. Will be an identity matrix if orthogonal rotation is used.

se:

Standard errors of the rotated standardized factor loading matrix

method:

Method of rotation

call:

The command used to generate this object

methods

• summary The summary function shows the detailed results of the rotated solution. This function has two arguments: suppress and sort. The suppress argument is used to not show the standardized loading values that less than the specified value. The default is 0.1. The sort is used to sort the factor loadings by the sizes of factor loadings in each factor. The default is TRUE.

Examples

library(lavaan)
unrotated <- efaUnrotate(HolzingerSwineford1939, nf=3, varList=paste0("x", 1:9), estimator="mlr")
summary(unrotated, std=TRUE)
inspect(unrotated, "std")

# Rotated by Quartimin
rotated <- oblqRotate(unrotated, method="quartimin")
summary(rotated)
