Hi, I tried to run 'factanal' function for Factor Analysis, but failed to get results.
The error message was following, Error in factanal(data, factors = 3, rotation = "varimax") : unable to optimize from this starting value I searched for the solution of this error, and one said putting 'control=list(trace=T)' in the argument as option, but it also failed. looks like no way for it on my own. I doubted that high correlation btw observed variables in the original data, so removed some variables with high correlations (1~3, 19, 23~33). After that, I ran it , but also couldn't get any output. If you respond to my question, it will a big help for me .
