Comparison of Classical and Robust Factor Analyses Methods

Öz

Factor analysis is a multivariate statistical analysis technique that has become very popular in recent years. In the factor analysis model, the error covariance matrix is assumed to be the multivariate normal distribution, and outliers are likely to be accounted for. Various estimation methods were compared with Monte Carlo simulation for the factor analysis model. The performances of the estimation methods were evaluated based on the ratio of the total variance explained and the criterion fit values. Considering the MLE, PCA, WLS, and GLS methods for classical factor analysis and the MCD, M, and S methods for robust factor analysis, the ratio of total variance explained, and fit values decreased as the sample size increased. When the number of variables increases, the ratio of total variance explained, and fit values increase at different sample sizes. It can be said that the WLS and GLS methods are better than others for classical factor analysis and the MCD and M methods are better than others for robust factor analysis.
