Factor Analysis

Factor analysis is a statistical method used to describe variability among observed, correlated variables in terms of a potentially lower number of unobserved variables called factors. For example, it is possible that variations in six observed variables mainly reflect the variations in two unobserved (underlying) variables. Factor analysis searches for such joint variations in response to unobserved latent variables. The observed variables are modelled as linear combinations of the potential factors, plus "error" terms. Simply put, the factor loading of a variable quantifies the extent to which the variable is related with a given factor.A common rationale behind factor analytic …

However, this sort of simplistic single-factor analysis does not reflect the complexities of real life service uptake and benefit. 4 For example, multi-factor analysis might show whether gay men and trans women ask or to whom they should be posed. Multi-factor analysis is aided by predetermined data sets, as it also generally organized for single or two-factor analysis, which makes it difficult to disaggregate.
