SPSS does not include confirmatory factor analysis but those who are interested could take a look at AMOS.

How do you calculate factor in SPSS?

In SPSS, regression factor scores are obtained by clicking the Scores button in the Factor Analysis window, checking the “Save as variables” box in the Factor Analysis: Factor Scores window and selecting “Regression” (default) from the three options provided.

How do you interpret factor analysis in SPSS?

Interpretation of factor analysis using SPSS

  1. Table 1: Descriptive statistics. The correlation matrix.
  2. Table 2: Correlation matrix. Kaiser Meyer Olkin (KMO) and Bartlett’s Test (measures the strength of relationship among the variables)
  3. Table 4: Communalities.
  4. Figure 1: Scree plot.
  5. Table 6: Component matrix.

How does factor analysis work?

Factor analysis is a powerful data reduction technique that enables researchers to investigate concepts that cannot easily be measured directly. By boiling down a large number of variables into a handful of comprehensible underlying factors, factor analysis results in easy-to-understand, actionable data.

How do you exclude cases from a variable in SPSS?

For excluding cases from data editing, use DO IF or IF instead….Filtering in SPSS usually involves 4 steps:

  1. create a filter variable;
  2. activate the filter variable;
  3. run one or many analyses -such as correlations, ANOVA or a chi-square test- with the filter variable in effect;
  4. deactivate the filter variable.

  • *2. Line below doesn’t flag any cases because ‘chrissy’ is not the same as ‘Chrissy’. if string_2 = ‘chrissy’ find_chrissy = 1. exe.
  • *3. Right way: ‘Chrissy’ instead of ‘chrissy’.
