In one paper of mine, I performed a -factor, pcf- analysis on a survey, and said I did not perform the same thing on a companion survey due to miserable -estat kmo- result. Both reviewers asked to try a "multifactor" analysis. Is any of you familiar with this word and able to translate it into a Stata 9.2 command?
Just note that in the paper I do not report any reference to the Stata commands above, and that I labelled my analysis as Principal Component Analysis (several non-Stata users (for long time I didn't bother to learn how to do such things with Stata, and reverted to my first statistical software, SPSS) seem not to be aware that -pca- and -factor, pcf- are different things).
If it may help, the area of the research is (innovation) management.
Many thanks,
Nicola
P.S. I'll NOT receive/read any email but the Digest.
