Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) are two widely used methods in this domain. In recent years, new findings have emerged that shed light on the strengths and limitations of both methods. This paper discussed about new findings of EFA and CFA, challenges ahead and some necessary recommendations.
