Hi I'm trying to understand the names of the output I get from extracting the loadings and the factor scores from fa()
when I export to csv the $loadings I get the following columns in this order: MR4, MR3, MR2, MR6, MR7, MR5, MR1, MR8, MR10, MR9, MR11 When I export to csv the $scores I get the following columns in this order: V1, V2, V3, V4, V5, V6, V7, V8, V9, V10,V11 Are the scores in the column V1 derived from the loadings in column MR1 ? Or are the scores in the first column of $scores (ie V1) derived from the loadings in the first column of $loadings (ie MR4)? Thank you very much for your guidance Best wishes Brent Brent Caldwell, MBChB, DPH, MPH.
