A Reliability Coefficient For Maximum Likelihood Factor Analysis

Tucker, Ledyard R.; Lewis, Charles

Psychometrika, 38, 1, 1-10, Mar 73

Maximum likelihood factor analysis provides an effective method for estimation of factor matrices and a useful test statistic in the likelihood ratio for rejection of overly simple factor models. A reliability coefficient is proposed for analysis of factor solution. (Author/RK)
