Matrix Output (FACTOR command)

FACTOR can write matrix materials in the form of a correlation matrix, a covariance matrix, a factor-loading matrix, or a factor score coefficients matrix.

• The correlation and covariance matrix materials include counts, means, and standard deviations in addition to correlations or covariances.
• The factor-loading matrix materials contain only factor values and no additional statistics.
• The factor score coefficients materials include means and standard deviations, in addition to factor score coefficients.
• See Format of the Matrix Data File (FACTOR command) for a description of the file.
• FACTOR generates one matrix per split file.
• Any documents contained in the active dataset are not transferred to the matrix file.
