Abstract

In factor analysis, whenever the number of variables (m) less than the number of the experimental units (n) the procedure of R-mode should be applied, if (m) exceed (n) the Q-mode is the suitable procedure to follow. A shortcut transformation between the results of the two procedures were established in any analytical step, they are: eigen vectors, factor loadings, factor coefficients and factor scores.
