Dear all,
I have done a factor analysis in order to not have multicollinearity issues with some climate-related variables. The question is if it is possible to obtain the beta values of each of the original variables that compose the factors from the factor scores. The final aim would be tu use other dataset with those variables and apply a regression analysis.
Any advice will be welcome.

Hello Lara,
Here's a good starting link for understanding methods by which factor scores are computed: http://psychology.okstate.edu/faculty/jgrice/factorscores/compute_q.html
Good luck with your work.

You can make your model using structural equation analysis (SEM) to obtain the beta values.
