Truong, T. D. (2025). Factors Determining Governance Effectiveness in Vietnamese Universities: A Mixed-Method Investigation. Educational Process: International Journal, 19, e2025605. https://doi.org/10.22521/edupij.2025.19.605

q2 · i? · associational · r2

Exploratory factor analysis (Table 7) of the 455-respondent survey. The article reports six factors with loadings "ranging from 0.61 to 0.84, exceeding the acceptable threshold of 0.50" and 85.2% cumulative variance explained.

"The total variance explained by the six factors was 85.2%, a very high value, indicating that the six-factor model accounts for the majority of the variance in the original dataset."
