Exploratory structural equation modeling of the general decision-making style inventory

Adapting Scott and Bruce's General Decision-Making Style Inventory to Patient Decision Making in Provider Choice.

OBJECTIVE Research testing the concept of decision-making styles in specific contexts such as health care-related choices is missing.

Exploratory Structural Equation Modeling

Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) has been said to be the most frequently used multivariate analysis technique in statistics. Jennrich and Sampson (1966) solved a significant EFA factor loading matrix rotation problem by deriving the direct Quartimin rotation. Jennrich was also the first to develop standard errors for rotated solutions although these have still not made their way into most stat...
