A NOTE ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN <i>Q</i> AND <i>R</i> FACTORS

Abstract

The relationship between Q and R factor loadings is presented, using the Guilford index of G. The transition is offered as a rationale for the use of the two factor methods in a coordinated manner. An illustrative example is presented, using hypothetical data. Finally a suggested application of the coordinated use of the two systems in the clinical area, properly justified by the rationale of the present paper, is offered.
