利用因子分析估计参数
- 研究问题
- 传统上用于相关关系分析的因子分析，能否用于估计线性及若干非线性函数参数，并判断个体关系是否可以聚合？
- 方法与思路
- 作者将因子分析从相关矩阵分析拓展至函数关系的参数估计，同时生成个体参数与总体参数，并提出聚合判断规则。
- 材料陈述的贡献
- 摘要称，该程序兼具曲线拟合功能，可估计样本中各个体的参数，并为不同函数关系下聚合是否合法提供决策规则。
- 阅读关注点
- 应核对函数关系如何转化为因子分析问题、参数可确定的条件，以及个体参数、总体参数和聚合规则的具体含义。
- 阅读边界
- OpenAlex 摘要未注明稿件版本，未给出算法、统计性质或非线性函数范围；不能把这里的因子分析等同于宏观动态因子模型。
原文摘要
Factor analysis has been traditionally utilized for three broad purposes: First, as a data reduction technique which will hopefully simplify a multivariate situation to a smaller set of dimensions and enable the researcher to utilize data on a large number of variables; second, as an indexing device in which overtly manifested data are transformed to provide the latent or unobservable trait of a phenomenon; finally, as a cluster technique which helps the researcher to classify a variety of observations into a small set of clusters which are also generally ordered. All three approaches have used a common starting point, namely, a matrix of correlations either among the variables (R type factor analysis) or among the observations (Q type factor analysis). In other words, factor analysis has been limited to associative relations. The same technique can be used in functional relations, especially to estimate parameters of all linear and several nonlinear functions. It, therefore, essentially seems to serve the same function as curve fitting techniques but with two important distinctions. First, the procedure outlined here provides estimates of parameters for each observation (individual) in the sample as well as aggregate parameters. Second, it provides decision rules for various types of functions where aggregation of observations (individuals) assumed to have certain functional relations is or is not legitimate.
