Dear R specialists and users, can you help me with the interpretation of the $evecs in the result of a pca from the library multiv? (I must ashamedly admit that this is still R V 0.64.1 and multiv V 1.0-1) I did a default pca which is supposed to normalise the variables before rotating them. Now, I was trying to find out, whether the $evecs are the loadings for the unstandardised or standardised variables. Thus, I tried to calculate the linear combinations using the $evecs and either the original variables or the standardised variables but neither seems to result in the values that can be found in $rproj. Do I miss something?
