Spanish term or phrase: análisis de regresión múltiple ajustada de factores.
Pesos
Con el objetivo de analizar en qué medida cada una de estas variables explica la reputación Global de la empresa, se realiza un análisis de regresión múltiple ajustada de factores.
Como resultado de este proceso estadístico se obtienen los denominados “drivers” o “pesos”, que se calculan tanto para los 26 atributos como para las dimensiones.
Estos pesos se muestran a lo largo del informe como porcentajes e indican en qué medida cada una de las variables (atributos o dimensiones) contribuye en la construcción de la reputación de la empresa.

English translation:multiple regression analysis based on factor analysis
Explanation:
Let me provide a simple explanation:

A) Let Y a variable vector you want to explain and X the matrix containing all the explanatory variables likely to explain Y.

B) A multiple regression analysis consists in regressing y on the matrix X. But this is not what this text is talking about.

C) The text is saying that it is necessary first to submit X to a factor analysis, which generates factor vectors.

D) The expression 'factor adjusted' in the text means that each factor vector is a linear combination of the variable vectors in the matrix X.

E) The last step of the process is to run a multiple regression with Y the endogenous variable and the matrix of factors as the matrix of explanatory variables.

I cannot be more precise than that. Otherwise, it would be pure algebra and pure statistics.

13 jun. 2013 - Multiple Regression Analysis: Use Adjusted R-Squared and Predicted R-Squared to Include the Correct Number of Variables ... In my last post, I showed how R-squared cannot determine whether the coefficient estimates and predictions are biased, which is why you must assess the residual plots. However ...

This information can be used in a multiple regression analysis to build a regression equation of the form: Salary = .5*Resp + .8*No_Super. Once this so-called regression line has been determined, the analyst can now easily construct a graph of the expected (predicted) salaries and the actual salaries of job incumbents in ...

agree  Peter Clews: I don't knowwhat it means, but this seems the most likely. "Ajustada" is femenine singular, so the only thing it can refer to is "regresión", not "factores", and not "análisis".
