Abstract
Summary This manuscript develops two indices for describing the complexity of a factor solution. One index indicates the complexity of the variables in terms of factors, while a second index indicates the complexity of the factors in terms of variables. With the use of the classic Thurstone box problem as an illustrative example, various orthogonal and oblique solutions are discussed with regard to these indices. It is concluded that the indices may serve to provide a measure of the attainment of simplicity of structure.
