Three-Mode Common Factor Analysis: Procedure and Computer Programs.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Snyder, Conrad W., Jr.; Law, Henry G. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1979
As psychologists increasingly employ more elaborate and comprehensive data collection schemes, sophisticated analytic techniques will play an ever more important role in understanding behavioral data. This paper outlines one such promising technique, Tucker's three-mode factor analysis, which enables the researcher to explore new taxonomic…

Some Cautions Concerning the Application of Causal Modeling Methods.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Cliff, Norman – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1983
The dangers of overlooking time-honored cautions in the making causal interpretations of data analyses from correlational studies when using highly sophisticated computer programs and their associated techniques are discussed. (JKS)

Interrelations among Models for the Analysis of Moment Structures.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Bentler, Peter M.; Weeks, David G. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1979
Factor analysis in several populations, covariance structure models, three-mode factor analysis, structural equations systems with measurement model, and analysis of covariance with measurement model are all shown to be specializations of a general moment structure model. Some new structured linear models are also described. (Author/CTM)

Confirmatory Factor Analysis Applications: Missing Data Problems and Comparison of Path Models between Populations.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Werts, C. E.; And Others – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1979
Procedures for simultaneous confirmatory factor analysis in several populations are useful in a variety of problems. This is demonstrated with examples involving missing data, comparison of part correlations between groups, testing the equality of regression weights between groups with multiple indicators of each variable, and the formulation of…
