This video covers the basics of how to do an exploratory factor analysis in R, as a class assignment example. A more thorough example with data screening and other related procedures will be uploaded in the future. The analysis covers how to determine 1) number of factors through scree plots, parallel analysis (which I can't spell), and the Kaiser criterion, 2) simple structure through an examination of the loadings, 3) adequacy of the solution through fit indices, theory, and reliability. You will need the psych and GPArotation packages in R for this example.
