I used the function fa.polyfor factor analysis of categorical manifest variables. Now I am trying to extract factor estimates from the results. However, the function strindicates that multipliers are not stored in the results.
This contrasts with the factor analysis function for continuous variables - fa- where scores are stored in the results and can be extracted usingresults$scores
results <- fa.poly(inputdata, 4, fm = "pa", rotate = "oblimin")
results$scores gives null
COMPARISONS
results2 <- fa(inputdata, 4, fm = "pa", rotate = "oblimin")
results2$scores gives the desired results
