Hi,
I CANNOT unsubscribe from this list and it is urgent that I do so.
Three times I have sent an email to
[hidden email]
and put only the following text in the body of the message:
UNSUBSCRIBE SPSSX-L Alexis Wood.
I copy and paste this every time, so I know a mistake is not made, but I
just get an unrecognized command response.
If anyone could help that would be marvelous.
Thanks,
Alexis

Subject: Re: Using factor scores
If you think the variable's meaning is related to other variables with high
loadings on factor 1, try to rotate the factors to get a more interpretable
factor structure. If that fails, perhaps your theoretical approach, or your
interpretation of that specific variable, is wrong. Perhaps it is measuring
something else.
