ReplyDeleteHi Jeromy, thanks very much for these helpful resources on EFA. I noticed that some of the links to the academic articles have died and will need to replaced.

Thanks for letting me know. The half life of these links is pretty frustrating. As a substitute, many refer to journal articles. If the link doesn't work, a look a Google Scholar may be a fallback.
DeleteHi Jerome, i was having trouble in reporting EFA in my thesis according to APA style (6th ed.), i can't find any specific link where it clearly shows how to right results of EFA in a thesis or dissertation. i'll be waiting for ur reply.

A good strategy is to search the literature for published examples. If you can find some studies similar to your needs, you can use them as a template.
