Some points of CLIFF /KRUS 's important rotation procedure are criticized. This result in the definition of simple structure of canonical solutions, the use of STEWART /LOVE 's redundancy index as a measure of common variance, and two new rotation procedures (HAKSTIAN 's modified varimax rotation, separate rotation of both sets).
