Creating CFA syntax from EFA results

The psych package provides the wrapper function structure.sem() to help you easily turn your EFA results into syntax that can be used to conduct a CFA using the sem() function in the sem package. This convenience function can save you a lot of time in writing that syntax, so feel free to use it if you agree with the results of your EFA.
