The correct_lambda function accomplishes Step 4 of the algorithm with regard to replications of the estimated pattern coefficient matrix. More specifically, the correct_lambda function re-orders and/or re-signs as needed within the estimated pattern coefficient matrix for each replication of a simulation study with exploratory factor analysis.
1 | correct_lambda(P_data, rep, n.eta, sample_lambda)
|
P_data |
a list containing the correct permutation matrix, P_i, for each replication. |
rep |
the number of replications. |
n.eta |
the total number of latent variables within eta. |
sample_lambda |
a list containing replications of the estimated pattern coefficient matrix. |
The correct_lambda function uses P to re-order and/or re-sign as needed within the estimated pattern coefficient matrix for each replication of a simulation study with exploratory factor analysis. This function returns a list, correct_lambda, of the re-ordered and/or re-signed estimated pattern coefficient matrix for each replication and saves the list as a text file to the designated working directory.
