- Confirmatory factor analysisConfirmatory factor analysisIn statistics, confirmatory factor analysis is a special form of factor analysis. It is used to test whether measures of a construct are consistent with a researcher's understanding of the nature of that construct . In contrast to exploratory factor analysis, where all loadings are free to vary,...

- Factor analysisFactor analysisFactor analysis is a statistical method used to describe variability among observed, correlated variables in terms of a potentially lower number of unobserved, uncorrelated variables called factors. In other words, it is possible, for example, that variations in three or four observed variables...
- Latent variableLatent variableIn statistics, latent variables , are variables that are not directly observed but are rather inferred from other variables that are observed . Mathematical models that aim to explain observed variables in terms of latent variables are called latent variable models...
