The Rank of Reduced Dispersion Matrices.

Bekker, Paul A.; de Leeuw, Jan

Psychometrika, v52 n1 p125-35 Mar 1987

Psychometricians working in factor analysis and econometricians working in regression with measurement error in all variables are both interested in the rank of dispersion matrices under variation of diagonal elements. This paper reviews both fields; points out various small errors; and presents a methodological comparision of factor analysis and regression. (Author/JAZ)
