In petersenlab: A Collection of R Functions by the Petersen Lab

Sorts loadings from exploratory factor analysis.

Description

Sorts items' loadings based on their loadings from exploratory factor analysis fit with the psych::fa() function.

Usage

my_loadings_sorter(
  fit,
  sort_type = "largest_loading",
  nchar = 40,
  return_blocks = FALSE,
  showlatentcor = TRUE,
  itemLabels = NULL
)

Arguments

fit	the fitted object from the psych::fa() function
sort_type	how to sort the loadings. One of: "largest_loading": sorts items by the largest loading "largest_loading_but_first": sorts items by the largest loading, ignoring the loading on the first factor "first": sorts items by the largest loading on the first factor
nchar	the limit for the number of characters to display for the item label
return_blocks	whether to return the block number that corresponds to each item
showlatentcor	whether or not to print the intercorrelation among the latent factors (only possible for models with an oblique rotation)
itemLabels	a vector of the item labels
