Fig 3. Varimax principal components derived from ratings for 60-items of the MAS.

The figure begins (top box) with the First Unrotated Principal Component (FUPC) and displays the genesis of the derivation of the 3 components obtained. Text within each box indicates the label of the factor. Arabic numerals within boxes indicate the number of factors extracted for a given level (numerator) and the factor number within that level (denominator; e.g., 2/1 indicates the first component in a two-component solution). Arabic numerals within the arrow paths indicate the Pearson product-moment correlation between a component obtained early in the extraction and a later component. For example, when expanding from a two-component solution to a three-factor solution (rows 2 and 3), we see that Factor 2/2, “Processing” splits into two new factors, “Processing” (which correlates .97 with the parent component) and “Expressing” (which correlates .23 with the parent component).
