Precisely estimating factor scores is challenging, especially when models are mis-specified. Stemming from network analysis, centrality measures offer an alternative approach to estimating the scores. Using a two-fold simulation design with varying availability of a priori theoretical knowledge, this study implemented hybrid centrality to estimate…

A. R. Georgeson – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2025
There is increasing interest in using factor scores in structural equation models and there have been numerous methodological papers on the topic. Nevertheless, sum scores, which are computed from adding up item responses, continue to be ubiquitous in practice. It is therefore important to compare simulation results involving factor scores to…

Vispoel, Walter P.; Lee, Hyeryung; Xu, Guanlan; Hong, Hyeri – Journal of Experimental Education, 2023
Although generalizability theory (GT) designs have traditionally been analyzed within an ANOVA framework, identical results can be obtained with structural equation models (SEMs) but extended to represent multiple sources of both systematic and measurement error variance, include estimation methods less likely to produce negative variance…

In'nami, Yo; Cheung, Mike W.-L.; Koizumi, Rie; Wallace, Matthew P. – Language Learning, 2023
Second language (L2) listening comprehension is a function of many variables. We focused on metacognitive awareness, which we measured using the Metacognitive Awareness Listening Questionnaire (MALQ; Vandergrift et al., 2006), and meta-analyzed (a) the factor structure of the MALQ and (b) the relationship between metacognitive awareness and L2…

Emma Somer; Carl Falk; Milica Miocevic – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2024
Factor Score Regression (FSR) is increasingly employed as an alternative to structural equation modeling (SEM) in small samples. Despite its popularity in psychology, the performance of FSR in multigroup models with small samples remains relatively unknown. The goal of this study was to examine the performance of FSR, namely Croon's correction and…

Daniel McNeish – Grantee Submission, 2023
Scale validation is vital to psychological research because it ensures that scores from measurement scales represent the intended construct. Factor analysis fit indices are commonly used to provide quantitative evidence that a proposed factor structure is plausible. However, there is mismatch between guidelines for evaluating fit of factor models…

Joanna L. Dickert; Jian Li – Research in Higher Education, 2024
As colleges and universities grapple with uncertainty around current and future enrollment as well as increasingly vocal questions about the value of postsecondary education, it is critically important that institutions ascertain and invest in the elements of campus learning and engagement that add value to the undergraduate experience. This study…

Manuel T. Rein; Jeroen K. Vermunt; Kim De Roover; Leonie V. D. E. Vogelsmeier – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2025
Researchers often study dynamic processes of latent variables in everyday life, such as the interplay of positive and negative affect over time. An intuitive approach is to first estimate the measurement model of the latent variables, then compute factor scores, and finally use these factor scores as observed scores in vector autoregressive…

Miyazaki, Yasuo; Kamata, Akihito; Uekawa, Kazuaki; Sun, Yizhi – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2022
This paper investigated consequences of measurement error in the pretest on the estimate of the treatment effect in a pretest-posttest design with the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model, focusing on both the direction and magnitude of its bias. Some prior studies have examined the magnitude of the bias due to measurement error and suggested…

Beauducel, André; Hilger, Norbert – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2022
In the context of Bayesian factor analysis, it is possible to compute plausible values, which might be used as covariates or predictors or to provide individual scores for the Bayesian latent variables. Previous simulation studies ascertained the validity of mean plausible values by the mean squared difference of the mean plausible values and the…

Helena C. Malinakova – Journal of Chemical Education, 2025
Organic chemistry presents a significant obstacle for students seeking entry into health-related professions. Students' ability to develop effective study approaches is an important predictor of success in the course. Herein, we report an investigation utilizing an OCH-adjusted M-ASSIST instrument to assess possible changes in students' study…

Bogaert, Jasper; Loh, Wen Wei; Rosseel, Yves – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2023
Factor score regression (FSR) is widely used as a convenient alternative to traditional structural equation modeling (SEM) for assessing structural relations between latent variables. But when latent variables are simply replaced by factor scores, biases in the structural parameter estimates often have to be corrected, due to the measurement error…

Joao M. Souto-Maior; Kenneth A. Shores; Rachel E. Fish – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2025
Whether selection processes contribute to group-level disparities or merely reflect pre-existing inequalities is an important societal question. In the context of observational data, researchers, concerned about omitted-variable bias, assess selection-contributing inequality via a kitchen-sink approach, comparing selection outcomes of…

Mansolf, Maxwell; Jorgensen, Terrence D.; Enders, Craig K. – Grantee Submission, 2020
Structural equation modeling (SEM) applications routinely employ a trilogy of significance tests that includes the likelihood ratio test, Wald test, and score test or modification index. Researchers use these tests to assess global model fit, evaluate whether individual estimates differ from zero, and identify potential sources of local misfit,…

Greene, Jeffrey A.; Bernacki, Matthew L.; Plumley, Robert D.; Kuhlmann, Shelbi L.; Hogan, Kelly A.; Evans, Mara; Gates, Kathleen M.; Panter, Abigail T. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2023
Undergraduate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) students' motivations have a strong influence on whether and how they will persist through challenging coursework and into STEM careers. Proper conceptualization and measurement of motivation constructs, such as students' expectancies and perceptions of value and cost (i.e.,…
