ROBUST FACTOR ANALYSIS IN THE PRESENCE OF NORMALITY VIOLATIONS, MISSING DATA, AND OUTLIERS: EMPIRICAL QUESTIONS AND POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS

Robust factor analysis in the presence of normality violations, missing data, and outliers: Empirical questions and possible solutions

Although a mainstay of psychometric methods, several reviews suggest factor analysis is often applied without testing whether data support it, and that decision-making process or guiding principles providing evidential support for FA techniques are seldom reported.Researchers often defer such decision-making to Yellow Dock the default settings on w

In most species mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is inherited maternally in an apparently clonal fashion, although how this is achieved remains uncertain.Population genetic studies show not only that individuals can harbor more than one type of mtDNA (heteroplasmy) but that heteroplasmy is common and widespread across a diversity of taxa.Females harboring
