Some new procedures for minimum residual factor analysis are presented. First a successive method developed by Comrey is modified in order to guarantee convergence and to provide a way to handle Heywood cases. Next, this modified Comrey procedure is extended to a simultaneous procedure which is computationally simpler and faster than the Minres method developed by Harman and Jones. This latter method, however, satisfies a stronger necessary condition for the minimum of the sum of squared off-diagonal residuals. Some empirical results are presented. These are in accordance with the theoretical considerations; that is, the Harman and Jones procedure tends to be slower, but attains in general a lower value for the sum of squared off-diagonal residuals.
提出了一些用于最小残差因子分析的新程序。首先,对Comrey开发的一种逐次方法进行了修改,以确保收敛并提供一种处理Heywood情况的方法。接下来,将这种修改后的Comrey程序扩展为一种同时进行的程序,该程序在计算上比Harman和Jones开发的Minres方法更简单、更快。然而,后一种方法满足了非对角残差平方和最小化的更强必要条件。给出了一些实证结果。这些结果与理论考虑一致;也就是说,Harman和Jones程序往往较慢,但一般来说非对角残差平方和的值较低。
