Evaluating Fit Indices for Multivariate t-Based Structural Equation Modeling with Data Contamination
In conventional structural equation modeling (SEM), with the presence of even a tiny amount of data contamination due to outliers or influential observations, normal-theory maximum likelihood (ML-Normal) is not efficient and can be severely biased. The multivariate-t-based SEM, which recently got implemented in Mplus as an approach for mixture modeling, represents a robust estimation alternativ...
متن کاملStructural Equation Modeling: Categorical Variables
In the behavioral sciences, response variables are often noncontinuous, common types being dichotomous, ordinal or nominal variables, counts and durations. Conventional structural equation models (SEMs) have thus been generalized to accommodate different kinds of responses.
متن کاملOn specifying the null model for incremental fit indices in structural equation modeling.
In structural equation modeling, incremental fit indices are based on the comparison of the fit of a substantive model to that of a null model. The standard null model yields unconstrained estimates of the variance (and mean, if included) of each manifest variable. For many models, however, the standard null model is an improper comparison model. In these cases, incremental fit index values rep...
متن کاملComparison of Model Fit Indices Used in Structural Equation Modeling Under Multivariate Normality
The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of estimation techniques and sample sizes on model fit indices in structural equation models constructed according to the number of exogenous latent variables under multivariate normality. The performances of fit indices are compared by considering effects of related factors. The Ratio Chi-square Test Statistic to Degree of Freedom, Root Me...
متن کاملStructural equations modeling: Fit Indices, sample size, and advanced topics
This article is the second of two parts intended to serve as a primer for structural equations models for the behavioral researcher. The first article introduced the basics: the measurement model, the structural model, and the combined, full structural equations model. In this second article, advanced issues are addressed, including fit indices and sample size, moderators, longitudinal data, me...
