+  * Both are data reduction techniques — they allow you to capture the variance in variables in a smaller set.
+  * Both are usually run in stat software using the same procedure, and the output looks pretty much the same.
+  * The steps you take to run them are the same-extraction, interpretation, rotation, choosing the number of factors or components.
+  * Despite all these similarities, there is a fundamental difference between them: PCA is a linear combination of variables; Factor Analysis is a measurement model of a latent variable.
