Population Field Study Analysis. Explain the habitat niche for each gecko.. What are the main biotic and abiotic features that the geckos interact with in this habitat?. The basic objective of Factor Analysis is data reduction or structure detection.. The purpose of . data reduction.  is to remove redundant (highly correlated) variables from the data file, perhaps replacing the entire data file with a smaller number of uncorrelated variables..
