[R] Please, recommend a method to rank factors

[Wladimir Eremeev]

Hello all.

I have several time series of several variables.
One of them is the result, and others are believed to be the factors,
influencing the result.
There is a correlation between the result and an each factor.
Those factors, in turn, are correlated to each other.

I need to build a table, which would show, say, that the result is most
dependent on factor 3; factor 1 has the second greatest effect on the
result, etc...

I've heard, there are several statistical methodics exist, which could
rank the factors, however, I was unable to find them.

Please, could you give me a clue, which method to use, in order to
build the ranking of the factors.

Thank you very much in advance.
