{title:Description}

{pstd}
{cmd:surloads} The program provides an alternative to calculating factor scores by the regression or Bartlett's method 
 if the researcher is not interested in the uniqueness factor of a variable.
 Given the rotated loading matrix of a factor analysis, the surloads calculates simple scores and saves them as variables.
 For each factor, the respective simple score is calculated as the sum of the products between a variable and its corresponding 
 loading on the factor.

Surload requires rotated loadings
Factor 1 generated - saved in score1.
Factor 2 generated - saved in score2.
