    Factor analysis According to Maria& Eva, the factor analysis is a technique in the statistics to observe variability in the correlated variables in terms of lowers number of unobserved variables, which is necessary for factorization (Maria& Eva, 2012). Dehak, Kenn, Dehak, Dumouchel, & Ouellet, further stated that, the factor analysis is useful technique to investigate the relationship between the variables in complex concepts and the main purpose of the factor analysis is to reduce the number of

    Factor analysis is based on the ‘common factor model’. This is a theoretical model that is useful for studying relationships among variables. It is the general way to estimate more than one factor from the data. This model postulates that observed measures are affected by underlying common factors and unique factors, and the correlation patterns need to be determined. In the factor analysis model, each variable is assumed to depend on a linear combination of factors. These coefficients are called

    THE SELECTED ITEMS In order to determine the construct validity, factor analysis was carried out with Principal Component Method and Varimax rotation. The purpose of factor analysis was to obtain theoretically meaningful dimensions pertaining to the study. Before conducting factor analysis, the Kaiser‐Meyer‐Olkin measure of sampling adequacy (KMO) and Bartlett’s test of Sphericity was carried out to see the suitability of the factor model. The KMO for both the Turnover Intention and for the Organizational

    Magidson et. al (2016)’s purpose was to make the Factor Analysis more straightforward and accessible to clinicians of varying perspectives. Factor Analysis aims to understand the aspects of certain problem behavior. In order to move forward, the problem behavior must be identified. Then the focus moves on to the triggers and figuring out the context of what happened right before the behavior occurred. This is known as the proximal trigger and is what is typically focused on. However, Magidson et

    4.3 Factor Analysis Exploratory factor analyses using Varimax rotation were conducted on each of the multiple-item scales, including the exogenous constructs ( information quality, entertainment, interactivity and vividness) and endogenous constructs (cognitive engagement, affective engagement, behavioral engagement and the outcomes of this engagement-loyalty and e-WOM) as a way to refine the measures in the study. Exploratory factor analysis was conducted prior to testing the full model to identify

    In order to examine the first research question, which focuses on whether the two sets of environmental behaviors are essentially the same or not they are systematically analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis. The foundation of this analysis relies on the fact that environmental behavior may take many forms and that those who are concerned about the environment may engage in some behaviors more so than other forms. This possible difference in engagement may be due to opportunity structures that

    for stated brand choice factors. The technique used to analyze brand choice factors is factor analysis. It focused on brand choice factors of respondents. Major variables that determine the brand selection are presented for further factor analysis and ANOVA is used in order to analyses the factors For that, first correlation matrix is formed to find the appropriateness of factor model by checking whether such correlated variables exists or not.

    3.2.1 Stages of Factor Analysis Decision process Factor analysis is a statistical method, which is used in multivariate to describe variability between correlated variables they are known as factors. These factors are assumed to represent the dimensions within the data. The information which is gathered by performing factor analysis can later reduce the set of variables in a dataset. The basic concept of factor analysis is to represent a set of variables by a smaller set of variables. The primary
