Question:

1. Interpret the findings of the factor analysis by completing the following:

a. Is the sample size in the data set sufficiently large to conduct a factor analysis of the 13 items? Explain.

b. How many factors with eigenvalues greater than 1.0 emerge from the EFA?

c. What is the percentage of variance accounted for by each of these factors?

d. What is the cumulative percentage of variance in items explained by factors with eigenvalues greater than 1.0?

e. How many factors does the scree plot suggest? Does the scree plot provide a clear indication of the number of factors?

f. In this particular case, do you feel the eigenvalue criterion or the scree plot is more useful for determining the number of factors present in the data?
g. Identify which items load on each factor (use factors as determined by the eigenvalue criterion).
h. Provide a possible label for each interpretable factor.
