Question Nos. 46 to 50:
Read the following paragraph and answer the five questions which follow:
A researcher in personality and psychometry, after a thorough scrutiny of human characteristics, located eighty personality scales which presumably provide a comprehensive description of human personality. He administered these scales to a sufficiently large sample (N = 1000) and obtained the inter correlations among the eighty scales. The researcher wanted to factor analyse these scales. Retaining unities in the diagonal spaces of the 80x80 correlation matrix, the unrotated factors were extracted. Using various criteria for deciding the number of factors for rotation, fifteen factors were retained. The fifteen factors together explained 70% of the total variance. These fifteen factors were rotated by following a suitable method and the resulting inter-correction matrix was examined. Several of the inter-factor correlations were fairly high. Second-order factor analysis was then carried out which yielded five, nearly orthogonal factors.
46. While factor-analyzing the 80 X 80 correlation matrix, out of the following four factor extraction methods, which one has probably been employed in the above work?
(A) Least square method
(B) Confirmatory factor analysis method
(C) Principal axes method
(D) Principal components method
Answer: (D)
47. Which one of the following is not the criterion for deciding the number of factors for rotation?

(D) Wilks’ criterion
Answer: (D)
