[R] Factor analysis and cfa with asymptotically distributed data

[Mark Difford]

Jane,

>> Does someone know how to do fa and cfa with strong skewed data?

Your best option might be to use a robustly estimated covariance matrix as
input (see packages robust/robustbase).

Or you could turn to packages FAiR or lavaan (maybe also OpenMx). Or you
could try soft modelling via package plspm.

Regards, Mark.
