Can mirt exploratory factor analysis method be used for factor structure for marketing/management research studies because most of the studies that I have gone through are related to education test studies? My objective is to extract factors to be used in subsequent analysis (Regression/SEM) My data is comprised of questions like: Data sample for Rasch Factors Thinking about your general shopping habits, do you ever: a. Buy something online b. Watch product review videos online RESPONSE CATEGORIES: 1 Yes 2 No Data sample for graded Factors Thinking about ride-hailing services such as Uber or Lyft, do you think the following statements describe them well? a. Are less expensive than taking a taxi b. Save their users time and stress RESPONSE CATEGORIES: 1 Yes 2 No 3 Not sure
The Mirt package generally concentrates on Item Response Theory. You can perform the Exploratory Factor Analysis you want more easily with the "fa" function in the "psych" package in R. You will also find many different and up-to-date estimation methods of factor analysis in this package.
