Testing for measurement invariance with respect to an ordinal variable.
Researchers are often interested in testing for measurement invariance with respect to an ordinal auxiliary variable such as age group, income class, or school grade. In a factor-analytic context, these tests are traditionally carried out via a likelihood ratio test statistic comparing a model where parameters differ across groups to a model where parameters are equal across groups. This test n...

متن کاملWeak measurement invariance with respect to unmeasured variables: an implication of strict factorial invariance.
Measurement bias refers to systematic differences across subpopulations in the relation between observed test scores and the latent variant underlying the test scores. Comparisons of subpopulations with the same score on the latent variable can be expected to have the same observed test score. Measurement invariance is therefore one of the key issues in psychological testing. It has been establ...
متن کاملA checklist for testing measurement invariance
The analysis of measurement invariance of latent constructs is important in research across groups, or across time. By establishing whether factor loadings, intercepts and residual variances are equivalent in a factor model that measures a latent concept, we can assure that comparisons that are made on the latent variable are valid across groups or time. Establishing measurement invariance invo...
متن کاملTesting with Respect to Concerns
Often the code regions that are assigned for a maintenance task do not follow the modularization of the original application program, but instead include parts of code from many different units scattered throughout the application. In this paper, we investigate an approach to testing which we call concern-based testing, which leverages existing tools to help software maintainers identify the re...
