Note: : communality (the percentage of variance in each item explained by the 5 factors); : pattern coefficient (the equivalent of the standardized partial regression coefficient, that is, the slope of a factor on the item); : structure coefficient (the equivalent of the simple Pearson correlation between an item and each factor); (the Pratt value, the proportion of the explained variance attributable to each factor; a measure of the relative importance of each factor to a given item); F1: factor 1; F2: factor 2; F3: factor 3; F4: factor 4; F5: factor 5. Factor 1 includes items c1, c2, c3, c6, and c9; factor 2 includes items e1, e2, e3, and e4; factor 3 includes items d2, f1, f2, and g2; factor 4 includes items e6, f3, and f4; factor 5 includes items a2 and a3.
