Troubleshooting
Problem
I need to run exploratory factor analysis for some categorical variables (on 0,1,2 likert scale). In the Factor procedure dialogs (Analyze->Dimension Reduction->Factor), I do not see an option for defining the variables as categorical. Do I need to set the Measure for each variable to 'Ordinal' in the Variable View of the Data Editor?
