title: Complexity And Simplicity As Objective Indices Descriptive Of Factor Solutions.
abstract: Kaiser's simplicity index is compared and contrasted with Hofmann's complexity index. It is noted that at the variable level one index may be derived algebraically from the other; however, each provides different descriptive information with regard to a factor solution. Furthermore it is suggested that when used together they provide an objective basis for comparing different factor solutions for the same data set.
