FAfA

Factor Analysis for All

v0.5 · Dec 15, 2025 · MIT + file LICENSE

Description

Provides a comprehensive Shiny-based graphical user interface for conducting a wide range of factor analysis procedures. 'FAfA' (Factor Analysis for All) guides users through data uploading, assumption checking (descriptives, collinearity, multivariate normality, outliers), data wrangling (variable exclusion, data splitting), factor retention analysis (e.g., Parallel Analysis, Hull method, EGA), Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) with various rotation and extraction methods, Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) for model testing, Reliability Analysis (e.g., Cronbach's Alpha, McDonald's Omega), Measurement Invariance testing across groups, and item weighting techniques. The application leverages established R packages such as 'lavaan' and 'psych' to perform these analyses, offering an accessible platform for researchers and students. Results are presented in user-friendly tables and plots, with options for downloading outputs.
