The deviance information criterion (DIC) is widely used to select the parsimonious, well-fitting model. We examined how priors impact model complexity (pD) and the DIC for Bayesian CFA. Study 1 compared the empirical distributions of pD and DIC under multivariate (i.e., inverse Wishart) and separation strategy (SS) priors. The former treats the…
