Dear Rena, As Peter points out, it is better to ask the maintainer of the program for detailed questions. As Peter correctly surmised, print.psych (which is used to print the output from the fa function), knows that you have an oblique solution and is reporting the amount of variance

Firstly, there is no fa() function in base R. There is one in package psych(), which has a maintainer, etc. I guess that it is because fa() does a non-orthogonal factor rotation and its print method knows about it, whereas the default print method for loadings assumes that rotations are

Hello, I am trying a factor analysis via R. When running the pricipal axis analysis I do get different tables depending on the print command. This is my factor analysis: fa.pa_cor_3_2- fa(ItemsCor_4, nfactors=3, fm=pa,rotate=oblimin) To get the h2 I did the following print command: print
