  1. Business Customer Complex products, such as a cars, have dozens of criteria to consider. • Sell!!! • What matters to customers? • Where are we positioned relative to competitors? • Buy!!! • What’s best for me? • Which brand to buy? • What Style? Color?

  2. Project Plan Perceptual Map: Automobile Research Objectives Understand Customers Get Data Survey Attribute Ratings Analytic Approach Factor Analysis Analysis Software R Reporting Perceptual Map

  3. Surveys

  4. Factor Analysis • Exploratory: no guiding hypotheses • Confirmatory: set of hypotheses that form the conceptual basis

  5. Survey: Attribute Ratings Many more features, options….

  6. Survey: Attribute Ratings

  7. Correlation Matrix cor(data, digits=2)

  8. install.packages("corrgram") library(corrgram) corrgram(data)

  9. Factor Analysis Factor Analysis / Variable Reduction Correlation Matrix • Correlated variables are grouped together and • separated from other variables with low or no correlation

  10. Factor Analysis F1 F2 FN F3 ….

  11. Factor Analysis F1 F2 FN F3 …. b’s Factor Loadings

  12. Psych Package – includes FA

  13. Psych Package – fa library(psych) rmodel <- fa(r = corMat, nfactors = 3, rotate = “none", fm = "pa")

  14. Psych Package

  15. Rotations Rotation Courtesy of Professor Paul Berger Factor 2 Each variable (circle) loads on both factorsand there is no clarity about separating thevariables into different factors, to give thefactors useful names. Factor 1

  16. Rotations Rotation Courtesy of Professor Paul Berger “CLASSIC CASE” NOW, all variables are loading on one factor and not at all the other; This is an overly “dramatic” case. After rotation of ~450 • Not Correlated  Orthogonal • Varimax = Orthogonal Rotation

  17. Psych Package – fa library(psych) rmodel <- fa(r = corMat, nfactors = 3, rotate = "oblimin", fm = "pa")

  18. Principal Components Analysis

  19. Psych Package – principal library(psych)fit <- principal(ratings6, nfactors=4, rotate=“null")

  20. Model model <- princomp(data, cor=TRUE) summary(model) biplot(model)

  21. Psych Package – principal Orthogonal / No Correlation library(psych)fit <- principal(ratings6, nfactors=4, rotate="varimax“) corrgram(ratings6[,(1,2,9,12,3,4,6,8,10,5,11,7,13)])

  22. Psych Package – principal plot(fit)

  23. Output # scree plot plot(fit,type="lines")

  24. 3 Factor vs. 4 Factor

  25. 3 Factor vs. 4 Factor Style Comfort Color Upgrade Packages Reliability Safety Country Origin Horsepower Nice Dash Miles Per Gallon Initial Price # of Miles on Car Financing Options Aaahh!!! Factor Money

  26. Perceptual Map Factor Loadings Weights Average Brand Ratings Variance

  27. Which Car? Which One? Price $$$ Aaaah factor… BORING Sweet!!! $

  28. Factor Analysis Recap
