NumberOfFactors Class

The

NumberOfFactors

class contains static methods for creating function objects suitable for use as "number of factors" functors used in the factor extraction step of a factor analysis. These functions take as parameters the eigenvalues and eigenvectors values computed during factor extraction and return the number of factors to "keep".

Methods

	Name	Description
	EigenvaluesGreaterThan	Creates a functor which computes the number of eigenvalues greater than the specified minimum value.
	EigenvaluesGreaterThanMean	Creates a functor which computes the number of eigenvalues greater than a given factor times the mean of the eigenvalues.
	FixedNumber	Creates a trivial functor which returns a fixed number for the number of factors to retain in a factor analysis.
	SelectAll	Creates a trivial functor for specifying "keep all the factors". Just returns the number of eigenvalues/eigenvectors.
