Individual Differences in Emotion Expression: Hierarchical Structure and Relations with Psychological Distress (2008, neutral): “PAF analyzes the common variance among variables, and it is preferable to principal components analysis when the goal is to find common factors (Kahn, 2006).”
The Hull Method for Selecting the Number of Common Factors (2011, methodology): “In empirical practice, it is generally advised to use an objective procedure combined with reasoned reflection (see, e.g., Henson & Roberts, 2006; Kahn, 2006).”
Guidelines for Meta-Analyses of Counseling Psychology Research (2006, background): “…meta-analyses do not count votes of significance but instead focus on effect sizes and confidence intervals (CIs) for the effect size (for more on CIs, see Kahn, 2006 [TCP, special issue, part 1]; Weston & Gore, 2006 [TCP, special issue, part 1]; Worthington & Whittaker, 2006 [this issue]).”
Young Adult Women’s Reports of Their Male Romantic Partner’s Pornography Use as a Correlate of Their Self-Esteem, Relationship Quality, and Sexual Satisfaction (2012, methodology): “91, which indicates that the sample size was large enough to evaluate the factor structure (Kahn 2006).”
Psychological, Relational, and Sexual Correlates of Pornography Use on Young Adult Heterosexual Men in Romantic Relationships (2014, methodology): “001), which indicates that the data was appropriate for factor analysis (Kahn, 2006).”
Advanced Applications of Structural Equation Modeling in Counseling Psychology Research (2006, methodology): “Structural equation modeling (SEM) is a data-analytic technique increasing in popularity during the past several years (Martens, 2005; Steiger, 2001; Weston & Gore, 2006 [TCP, special issue, part 1]; for other techniques in this special issue, see Helms, Henze, Sass, & Mifsud, 2006 [TCP, special iss”
A revised learning transfer system inventory: factorial replication and validation (2012, background): “For this reason, large sample sizes are necessary for proper estimation in CFA (Kahn 2006).”
Instagram Use and Self-Objectification: The Roles of Internalization, Comparison, Appearance Commentary, and Feminism (2018, methodology): “15 difference from an items’ highest factor loading (Kahn, 2006; Tabachnick & Fidell, 2013; Worthington & Whittaker, 2006).”
Development and Validation of the Calling and Vocation Questionnaire (CVQ) and Brief Calling Scale (BCS) (2012, methodology): “Anticipating that factors would be intercorrelated, we subjected the correlation matrix for the 156 items to a principle axis factoring (PAF) analysis with oblique, promax rotation (see Kahn, 2006; Steger, 2006; Worthington & Whittaker, 2006).”
The construction and initial validation of the Work Volition Scale (2012, background): “Items were removed if they did not form a distinct factor of at least 3 items (Kahn, 2006).”
Discriminant Analysis in Counseling Psychology Research (2006, methodology): “A function in DDA is analogous to a factor in factor analysis and is essentially the synthetic variable created by linearly combining the discriminating variables of interest (N, E, O, A, and C; for more on factor analysis, see Kahn, 2006 [this issue]).”
Construct Validation in Counseling Psychology Research (2006, methodology): “In an initial factor-analytic investigation with the CCCI-R, LaFromboise et al. (1991) failed to find three distinct factors, despite the fact that items were drawn from three separate but related content domains.”
Conducting Research With LGB People of Color: Methodological Challenges and Strategies (2010, background): “Structural equation modeling (SEM), in particular, has received much attention in the counseling psychology literature (e.g., Kahn, 2006; Martens, 2005; Weston & Gore, 2006).”
