Which method would be more robust.

Abdus Salam
Dear expert listers,

I have a dataset where the variables are overall satisfaction(7 point scale),Value for money comparison(7 Point Scale) and also a variable with 13 attributes which contains Description ratings(7 point scale),One variable called attribute(7 point scale),Rating performance(7 Point Scale),Rating quality of Communication (7 point scale).


Now client needs a  robust Driver analysis based on these variable. What I think first

1) I have to make all the variables as Binary variable as I need to know only Top 2 Box performance.
2) To check the strength of relationship - I want to do correlation with overall satisfaction to all other variables.

Or:

To check which factor drives the overall satisfaction very well:

1) I have to make all the variables as Binary variable.

2) Then for removing the multicolinearity I have to do factor analysis on the base of 13 attributes.

3) After getting a good factor solution -taking those factor solution and other 4 variables as an independent variable; overall satisfaction as a dependent variable.

4) Finally wants to run a linear regression analysis with enter method.


Can anyone suggest me which one would be more robust method?


Thanks!
Mou.
