Dan Wei; Peida Zhan; Hongyun Liu – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2024
In latent growth curve modeling (LGCM), overall fit indices have garnered increased disputation for model selection, and model fit evaluation based on the mean structure has becoming popularity. The present study developed a versatile fit index, named Weighted Root Mean Squared Errors (WRMSE), based on individual case residuals (ICRs) with the aim…

Huang, Francis L. – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2022
The presence of clustered data is common in the sociobehavioral sciences. One approach that specifically deals with clustered data but has seen little use in education is the generalized estimating equations (GEEs) approach. We provide a background on GEEs, discuss why it is appropriate for the analysis of clustered data, and provide worked…

Güler Yavuz Temel – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2024
The purpose of this study was to investigate multidimensional DIF with a simple and nonsimple structure in the context of multidimensional Graded Response Model (MGRM). This study examined and compared the performance of the IRT-LR and Wald test using MML-EM and MHRM estimation approaches with different test factors and test structures in…

Moretti, Angelo; Whitworth, Adam – Sociological Methods & Research, 2023
Spatial microsimulation encompasses a range of alternative methodological approaches for the small area estimation (SAE) of target population parameters from sample survey data down to target small areas in contexts where such data are desired but not otherwise available. Although widely used, an enduring limitation of spatial microsimulation SAE…

Jiang, Zhehan; Raymond, Mark; DiStefano, Christine; Shi, Dexin; Liu, Ren; Sun, Junhua – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2022
Computing confidence intervals around generalizability coefficients has long been a challenging task in generalizability theory. This is a serious practical problem because generalizability coefficients are often computed from designs where some facets have small sample sizes, and researchers have little guide regarding the trustworthiness of the…

Schnell, Rainer; Redlich, Sarah; Göritz, Anja S. – Field Methods, 2022
Frequency of behaviors or amounts of variables of interest are essential topics in many surveys. The use of heuristics might cause rounded answers, resulting in the increased occurrence of end-digits (called heaping or digit-preference). For web surveys (or CASI), we propose using a conditional prompt as input validation if digits indicating…

Phillip K. Wood – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2024
The logistic and confined exponential curves are frequently used in studies of growth and learning. These models, which are nonlinear in their parameters, can be estimated using structural equation modeling software. This paper proposes a single combined model, a weighted combination of both models. Mplus, Proc Calis, and lavaan code for the model…

Raykov, Tenko; Marcoulides, George A. – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2023
This article outlines a readily applicable procedure for point and interval estimation of the population discrepancy between reliability and the popular Cronbach's coefficient alpha for unidimensional multi-component measuring instruments with uncorrelated errors, which are widely used in behavioral and social research. The method is developed…

Chunhua Cao; Benjamin Lugu; Jujia Li – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2024
This study examined the false positive (FP) rates and sensitivity of Bayesian fit indices to structural misspecification in Bayesian structural equation modeling. The impact of measurement quality, sample size, model size, the magnitude of misspecified path effect, and the choice or prior on the performance of the fit indices was also…

Suyoung Kim; Sooyong Lee; Jiwon Kim; Tiffany A. Whittaker – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2024
This study aims to address a gap in the social and behavioral sciences literature concerning interaction effects between latent factors in multiple-group analysis. By comparing two approaches for estimating latent interactions within multiple-group analysis frameworks using simulation studies and empirical data, we assess their relative merits.…

Noma, Hisashi; Hamura, Yasuyuki; Gosho, Masahiko; Furukawa, Toshi A. – Research Synthesis Methods, 2023
Network meta-analysis has been an essential methodology of systematic reviews for comparative effectiveness research. The restricted maximum likelihood (REML) method is one of the current standard inference methods for multivariate, contrast-based meta-analysis models, but recent studies have revealed the resultant confidence intervals of average…

Campbell, Harlan; de Jong, Valentijn M. T.; Maxwell, Lauren; Jaenisch, Thomas; Debray, Thomas P. A.; Gustafson, Paul – Research Synthesis Methods, 2021
Ideally, a meta-analysis will summarize data from several unbiased studies. Here we look into the less than ideal situation in which contributing studies may be compromised by non-differential measurement error in the exposure variable. Specifically, we consider a meta-analysis for the association between a continuous outcome variable and one or…

Chunhua Cao; Xinya Liang – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2022
Exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) allows for the estimation of all cross-loadings, which leads to the number of parameters estimated substantially greater than that in conventional SEM. This study examined the sensitivity of fit measures (CFI, RMSEA, AIC, BIC, SaBIC, LRT) to measurement noninvariance in ESEM. Results suggested that…

Cornelis Potgieter; Xin Qiao; Akihito Kamata; Yusuf Kara – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2024
As part of the effort to develop an improved oral reading fluency (ORF) assessment system, Kara et al. estimated the ORF scores based on a latent variable psychometric model of accuracy and speed for ORF data via a fully Bayesian approach. This study further investigates likelihood-based estimators for the model-derived ORF scores, including…

Ke-Hai Yuan; Ling Ling; Zhiyong Zhang – Grantee Submission, 2024
Data in social and behavioral sciences typically contain measurement errors and do not have predefined metrics. Structural equation modeling (SEM) is widely used for the analysis of such data, where the scales of the manifest and latent variables are often subjective. This article studies how the model, parameter estimates, their standard errors…
