[R] interpreting evecs in pca (mulitv)

[Lorenz Gygax]

Dear R specialists and users,

can you help me with the interpretation of the $evecs in the result of a
pca from the library multiv? (I must ashamedly admit that this is still R
V 0.64.1 and multiv V 1.0-1)

I did a default pca which is supposed to normalise the variables before
rotating them. Now, I was trying to find out, whether the $evecs are the
loadings for the unstandardised or standardised variables. Thus, I tried
to calculate the linear combinations using the $evecs and either the
original variables or the standardised variables but neither seems to
result in the values that can be found in $rproj.

Do I miss something?

Many thanks and regards, Lorenz
