Abstract
Results of empirical comparisons of an inferential model of order analysis with factor analytic models were reported for two sets of data. On the prestructured data set (Thurstone's box data) both order and factor analytic models returned its dimensions of length, width and height. However, on the random data set (replication of the Armstrong and Soelberg study), only the factor analytic models indicated the presence of nonexistent dimensionality.Keywords
