The Weighted Varimax Rotation and the Promax Rotation

Cureton, Edward E.; Mulaik, Stanley A.

Psychometrika, 40, 2, 183-95, Jun 75

Applications to the Promax Rotation are discussed, and it is shown that these procedures solve Thurstone's hitherto intractable "invariant" box problem as well as other more common problems based on real data. (Author/RC)
