| Citazioni | To analyze the complex correlations of all scales with all others, a statistical procedure called factor analysis is applied. This procedure assumes that there are certain “factors” which, acting as common causes of the variance of concept ratings on the scales, determine to a certain (varying) extent the placement of these concepts on the several scales. |
