facomplex: Methods for Assessing Factor Complexity in Factor Analysis Solutions

Provides methods for estimating factor complexity coefficients in exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis (EFA/CFA) results. Included indices are the Hofman coefficient, Fleming's approach for factor simplicity, and others. Additional outputs include descriptive statistics (minimum, maximum, and mean) for target and non-target loadings, and visualization of results. References: Fleming, J.S.
