The Extra-Factor Phenomenon Revisited: Unidimensional Unfolding as Quadratic Factor Analysis.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Maraun, Michael D.; Rossi, Natasha T. – Applied Psychological Measurement, 2001
Demonstrated that the extra-factor phenomenon (the two-dimensional solution produced when linear factor analysis is applied to a set of unfoldable items) arises because the metric unidimensional unfolding model is equivalent to the unidimensional quadratic factor model and the unidimensional quadratic factor model is not distinguishable from the…

A Quantitative Method for Separation of Semantic Subspaces

Tzeng, Oliver C. S. – Applied Psychological Measurement, 1977
A new method for separating affective and denotative meaning subsystems in semantic differential ratings of any homogeneous concept domain is developed and illustrated using personality ratings data. Possible applications of this method are discussed. (Author/JKS)
