Applying principal component analysis as a substitute for factor analysis, we often adopt the following greater-than-one rule to decide the number of factors, κ: Take the number of eigenvalues of the correlation matrix that is greater than one. Another approach to deciding κ is based on the scree graph. In the present paper, the adequacy of these rules for one-factor cases is discussed. On the basis of obtained results, some recommendations for data analysis are given. Our approach to this study is based on the analytical expressions of eigenvalues under some simple but practical cases. In deriving theoretical results, we use a representation of a polynomial in terms of a remainder sequence. This technique is useful for finding the sign of polynomials under inequality constraints, so the idea is also introduced.
