Varimax is orthogonal, promax is oblique. Varimax is generally not recommended. See: Preacher, K. J., & MacCallum, R. C. (2003). Repairing Tom Swift's electric factor analysis machine. Understanding Statistics, 2(1), 13-43. (Google the title and you'll find a PDF). The fa() function in the psy

[R] Factor Analysis with orthogonal and oblique rotation
