An orthogonal factor matrix composed of the first ten factors was rotated to form an oblique matrix having a factor structure as nearly as possible like that found for the original in-basket factor analysis. Coefficients were computed which reflect the relative relationship of each of the 120 variables to each of eight oblique reference vectors, each vector corresponding...
