A paper by Fabrigar (Psychological Methods, 1999, 4(3):272-299) suggests the
use of the Roomt Mean Square Error of Approximation (RMSEA) or the Expected
Cross-Validation Index (ECVI) for determining the number of factors to retain
in a factor analysis. Has anyone written an ado for this? Know of other
packages that produce it?
Thanks!
