Tong-Rong Yang; Li-Jen Weng – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2024
In Savalei's (2011) simulation that evaluated the performance of polychoric correlation estimates in small samples, two methods for treating zero-frequency cells, adding 0.5 (ADD) and doing nothing (NONE), were compared. Savalei tentatively suggested using ADD for binary data and NONE for data with three or more categories. Yet, Savalei's…
