Note: Principal Component Analysis extraction method
Further, the graphical scree plot analysis as in Figure 2 (below) shows only four sharp
slopes (curves) denoting the four distinct factors. This indicates that each scale used in
this research denotes to one unique factor. Finally, consistent with findings in other
studies, the scales used in the present study had a high internal consistency (measure
based on the correlations between different items on the same test) (See Table 23).
