Comparison with SPSS #120

Hello,

I am comparing the results of this library with SPSS and I observe that they are different. Is it logical or is it a bug?

Thank you!

Hi @loukasilias, this library is mostly a direct port of functionality from R's psych library. There's no expectation of parity with SPSS.

@loukasilias maybe your issue is related to #89 or #90 (I had a similar question in the past). There are also some Important Notes in the docs which might be relevant.
