Peer reviewedLee, Sik-Yum; Tsui, Kwok-Leung – Psychometrika, 1982
The work of Joreskog and Sorbom in comparing factor structures of several populations is extended to a more general analysis of covariance structures. Also, more complex constraints on parameters are allowed in this work. (JKS)

Millsap, Roger E.; And Others – 1986
A constrained component analysis method, which bears a formal resemblance to the confirmatory factor analysis methods developed by K. G. Joreskog (1969) and others, is presented. In confirmatory factor analysis, the constraints allow the testing of formally structural hypotheses within a model that is falsifiable, even in its "just…

Peer reviewedStelzl, Ingeborg – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1986
Since computer programs have been available for estimating and testing linear causal models, these models have been used increasingly in the behavioral sciences. This paper discusses the problem that very different causal structures may fit the same set of data equally well. (Author/LMO)
