Exploratory Likert Scaling

v0.1.1 · May 15, 2021 · GPL (>= 3)

Description

An alternative to Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) for metrical data in R. Drawing on characteristics of classical test theory, Exploratory Likert Scaling (ELiS) supports the user exploring multiple one-dimensional data structures. In common research practice, however, EFA remains the go-to method to uncover the (underlying) structure of a data set. Orthogonal dimensions and the potential of overextraction are often accepted as side effects. As described in Müller-Schneider (2001) <doi:10.1515/zfsoz-2001-0404>), ELiS confronts these problems. As a result, 'elisr' provides the platform to fully exploit the exploratory potential of the multiple scaling approach itself.
