Comparing groups on latent variables: a structural equation modeling approach.
Structural equation modeling (SEM) provides a dependable framework for testing differences among groups on latent variables (constructs, factors). The purpose of this article is to illustrate SEM-based testing for group mean differences on latent variables. Related procedures of confirmatory factor analysis and testing for measurement invariance across compared groups are also presented in the ...
متن کاملStructural Equation Modeling of Latent Growth Curves of Weight Gain among Treated Tuberculosis Patients
Tuberculosis still remains a major public health problem even though it is treatable and curable. Weight gain measurement during anti tuberculosis (TB) treatment period is an important component to assess the progress of TB patients. In this study, Latent Growth Models (LGMs) were implemented in a longitudinal design to predict the change in weight of TB patients who were given three different ...
متن کاملBringing It All Together: Modeling Intervention Processes Using Structural Equation Modeling
The combination of programmatic theory and structural equation modeling (SEM) can act as the basic intellectual machinery for designing and evaluating behavioral interventions. As an example of the integration, we consider a case study of a randomized experiment to reduce sexual risk taking, the WINGS Project. Barriers to combining systematic use of SEM with programmatic theory for program impr...
متن کاملStructural equation modeling with latent variables for longitudinal blood pressure traits using general pedigrees
Structural equation modeling (SEM) has been used in a wide range of applied sciences including genetic analysis. The recently developed R package, strum, implements a framework for SEM for general pedigree data. We explored different SEM techniques using strum to analyze the multivariate longitudinal data and to ultimately test the association of genotypes on blood pressure traits. The quantita...
