JOSS Review - Specific 8 - CFA

Open PsyChiLin opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

Specific point 8 from JOSS Review:

I understand this is a package for exploraty factor analysis (hence its name), however, I'm curious on the possibility of adding a CFA tab (at the end, refitting the model using CFA (and, maybe at the beginning, an option to split the data into a training and a test dataset))... Your tool would be then sufficient for the entire, end-to-end, factor analysis.

Adding a CFA tab maybe a cool idea. But, in our view, it is not the major focus for EFAshiny. We aim to provide a tool for EFA and exploratory data analysis rather than testing. Although we do not directly provide the CFA options in the tool, users can still perform CFA using Editor tab (Github version). The tutorial and the README file also update this related information. Thanks for the comments !
