Scale Formation: Scale reliability analysis and exploratory factor analysis

P. C. Samuels

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter › peer-review

Abstract

This chapter introduces two complementary statistical analysis techniques: Scale Reliability Analysis (which is used for establishing a single scale) and Exploratory Factor Analysis (which is used for establishing multiple scales). A scale is a group of fields of data which are believed to, or have been shown to, describe the same thing.
