Peer reviewedFerron, John; Dailey, Ron; Yi, Qing – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 2002
Used computer simulation methods to examine the sensitivity of model fit criteria to misspecification of the first-level error structure in two-level models of change and to examine the impact of misspecification estimates on the variance parameters, estimates of the fixed effects, and tests of the fixed effects. Discusses problems caused by…

Peer reviewedCollins, Linda M.; And Others – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1993
To assess problems in hypothesis testing and model comparisons based on normed indices caused by latent class models with sparse contingency tables, a simulation was carried out investigating the distributions of the likelihood ratio statistic, the Pearson statistic chi-square, and a new goodness of fit statistic.
