Raykov, Tenko; Pohl, Steffi – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2013
A procedure for examining essential unidimensionality in multicomponent measuring instruments is discussed. The method is based on an application of latent variable modeling and is concerned with the extent to which a common factor for all components of a given scale accounts for their correlations. The approach provides point and interval…
