Factor analysis with multiple responses to a question I have a data relating to a questionnaire that takes form of a knowledge test, in which each question has multiple correct responses and the respondents can check all responses they consider to be correct to a particular question. That is, the questions are "multiple response" type, to select 1+ response in each question. I wanted to perform a factor analysis on the data to psychometrically validate the questionnaire; however, I have never done a psychometric analysis on a questionnaire with multiple "positive" responses selected. Is this even possible to perform factor analysis on such data and if not is there any alternative analysis that lends itself to such data?

As @BulkySplash says, factor analysis is typically not applied to items coded as correct or incorrect (i.e., as dichotomous, or 0/1). Though it is possible. One option would be to simply treat measured variables as continuous, though this can be problematic (e.g., see Robitzsch, 2020; and Robitzsch, 2022 for more information). Another option would be to estimate factor analysis parameters using tetrachoric correlations, which can be easily done in all modern factor analysis/structural equation modeling (SEM) software packages (e.g., lavaan, mplus).
You could also try to use item response theory (IRT) methods such as the two-parameter logistic model (2PL) or three-parameter logistic model (3PL; which accommodates the presence of guessing). For more information on IRT methods, and their relationship with factor analysis see Cai (2013),  Wirth & Edwards (2007), and Chen & Zhang (2021).
