Confirmatory Measurement Model Comparisons Using Latent Means.

Millsap, Roger E.; Everson, Howard

Multivariate Behavioral Research, v26 n3 p479-97 1991

Use of confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) with nonzero latent means in testing six different measurement models from classical test theory is discussed. Implications of the six models for observed mean and covariance structures are described, and three examples of the use of CFA in testing the models are presented. (SLD)
