Abstract
An approach for multiple factor analysis of dichotomized variables is presented. It is based on the distribution of the first and second order joint probabilities of the binary scored items. The estimator is based on the generalized least squares principle. Standard errors and a test of the fit of the model is given.

This paper discusses some methods of factor analysis and considers some mathematical problems of the model, such as whether certain kinds of observed data determine the model uniquely, and treats the statistical problems of estimation and tests of certain hypotheses.
