Raykov, Tenko; Marcoulides, George A.; Akaeze, Hope O. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2017
This note is concerned with examining the relationship between within-group and between-group variances in two-level nested designs. A latent variable modeling approach is outlined that permits point and interval estimation of their ratio and allows their comparison in a multilevel study. The procedure can also be used to test various hypotheses…

Raykov, Tenko; Marcoulides, George A.; Millsap, Roger E. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2013
A multiple testing method for examining factorial invariance for latent constructs evaluated by multiple indicators in distinct populations is outlined. The procedure is based on the false discovery rate concept and multiple individual restriction tests and resolves general limitations of a popular factorial invariance testing approach. The…

Raykov, Tenko; Marcoulides, George A.; Lee, Chun-Lung; Chang, Chi – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2013
This note is concerned with a latent variable modeling approach for the study of differential item functioning in a multigroup setting. A multiple-testing procedure that can be used to evaluate group differences in response probabilities on individual items is discussed. The method is readily employed when the aim is also to locate possible…
