Sammendrag	Bayesian principal component analysis embeds probabilistic PCA within a Bayesian framework, placing priors over the loading matrix so that irrelevant components are automatically pruned. It handles missing data naturally and provides principled uncertainty estimates for both the latent scores and the dimensionality of the representation.	Exploratory factor analysis reduces a large set of observed variables into a smaller number of latent common factors. It is widely used in scale development and psychometrics to uncover the dimensional structure that underlies a set of correlated items, without specifying that structure in advance.
