Abstract
The general procedure and detailed steps for attaining complete factor analyses of scores are presented. Both orthogonal and oblique factors are considered. It is shown that a single average by conventional procedure gives an incomplete summarization of the data when the rank exceeds one. There should be as many averages as there are common factors.Keywords
