چکیده
Yuan and Chan (Psychometrika, 76, 670-690, 2011) recently showed how to compute the covariance matrix of standardized regression coefficients from covariances. In this paper, we describe a method for computing this covariance matrix from correlations. Next, we describe an asymptotic distribution-free (ADF; Browne in British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, 37, 62-83, 1984) method for computing the covariance matrix of standardized regression coefficients. We show that the ADF method works well with nonnormal data in moderate-to-large samples using both simulated and real-data examples. R code (R Development Core Team, 2012) is available from the authors or through the Psychometrika online repository for supplementary materials.

Fit Indices in Covariance Structure Modeling: Sensitivity to Underparameterized Model Misspecification
This study evaluated the sensitivity of maximum likelihood (ML)-, generalized least squares (GLS)-, and asymptotic distribution-free (ADF)-based fit indices to model misspecification, under conditions that varied sample size and distribution. The effect of violating assumptions of asymptotic robustness theory also was examined. Standardized root-mean-square residual (SRMR) was the most sensitiv...
متن کاملSome New Test Statistics for Mean and CovarianceStructure Analysis with High Dimensional
Covariance structure analysis is often used for inference and for dimension reduction with high dimensional data. When data is not normally distributed, the asymptotic distribution free (ADF) method is often used to t a proposed model. This approach uses a weight matrix based on the inverse of the matrix formed by the sample fourth moments and sample covariances. The ADF test statistic is asymp...
متن کاملShrinkage Estimation of Large Dimensional Precision Matrix Using Random Matrix Theory
This paper considers ridge-type shrinkage estimation of a large dimensional precision matrix. The asymptotic optimal shrinkage coefficients and the theoretical loss are derived. Data-driven estimators for the shrinkage coefficients are also conducted based on the asymptotic results from random matrix theory. The new method is distribution-free and no assumption on the structure of the covarianc...
متن کاملMean and Covariance Structure Analysis : Theoretical and Practical Improvements
The most widely used multivariate statistical models in the social and behavioral sciences involve linear structural relations among observed and latent variables. In practice, these variables are generally nonnormally distributed, and hence classical multivariate analysis, based on multinormal error-free variables having no simultaneous interrelations, is not adequate to deal with such data. S...
متن کاملTheoretical, numerical, and experimental analyses of free vibrations of glass fiber reinforced polymer plates with central cutouts and free boundaries
This study explored the free vibration problem in relation to glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) plates with central cutouts and free boundaries using theoretical, experimental, and numerical methods. The theoretical formulations were derived from the classical lamination plate theory. The rectangular cutout was mathematically modeled into the stiffness matrix of the plate by multiplying Hea...
