GARCIA OCHOA, Juan José; LEON LARA, Juan de Dios  y  NUNO DE LA PARRA, José Pablo. Proposal of a model to measure competitiveness through factor analysis. Contad. Adm [online]. 2017, vol.62, n.3, pp.775-791. ISSN 0186-1042.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cya.2017.04.003.

This article presents a proposal for a simultaneous competitiveness measurement model for the three geographical levels: country, states, and municipalities. For this, a multivariate factor analysis method is used to help identify five factors, seven sub-factors, and thirty variables, which will be used for the measurement and to present the results of an empirical study on eleven entities: the country, the State of Sonora, and nine municipalities, which represent 80% of the population and 80% of their TGP. The results indicate that, in 2010, the municipality of Hermosillo was the most competitive.
