Actually, the loadings are quite different from the coefficients.  The
loadings are simply correlations of the original values to the scores for a
PCA factor.  The coefficients, on the other hand, allow one to compute the
scores.  There is a coefficient for each variable.  The coefficient is
multiplied with the standardized variable and then added to the next
coefficient multiplied by its standardized variable ets.  The general
formula
