Analysis of Hoge Religious Motivation Scale by Means of Combined HAC and PCA Methods

We used a method of combined Hierarchical Agglomerative Clustering (HA C) and Principal Components Analysis (PCA) to validate Hoge Intrinsic Religious Motivation Scale and investigate if this consensus procedure provides an efficient technique for the component extraction. Our results confirm the validity of the procedure and suggest that it may be useful exploratory technique for the data analysis in social sciences.
