[Corpora-List] Factor Analysis for Biber's MDA in SPSS

[Muhammad Shakir Aziz]

Dear Corpora Members
I am interested in Biber's MD Analysis. I wan to conduct a complete factor
analysis using Biber's original 67 variables. For this purpose, MDA
Tagger<https://www.academia.edu/4285869/Multidimensional_Analysis_Tagger_v_1.0>
is
very useful which has tagged my corpus with those 67 features and has
calculated their score in each text. Since it does not perform Factor
Analysis, I have provided myself with SPSS 17. As I am a beginner in MD
Analysis, and have least idea about using SPSS, I am requesting here for
assistance. I have tried to perform Factor Analysis in SPSS by following
steps provided in online tutorials. But as a result SPSS output window
doesn't show anything under Factor Analysis heading. I had selected Maximum
Likelihood Extraction method and Promax Rotation. Is there a guide/
tutorial available to select appropriate options in SPSS for MD Analysis?
I will be highly grateful for your help.
