A Note on Freeman's Measure of Association For Relating an Ordered to an Unordered Factor

A Confirmatory Analysis of the Factor Stability Hypothesis
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Bechtoldt, Harold P. – Psychometrika, 1974
Procedures developed by Joreskog for studying similarities and differences in factor structures between different groups were applied to data from a study by Thurstoen to investigate the sampling stability of a hypothesized isolated configuration. The hypothesis of an isolated configuration was rejected but not by much. (Author/RC)

Estimating the Standard Errors of Rotated Factor Loadings by Jackknifing.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Clarkson, Douglas B. – Psychometrika, 1979
The jackknife by groups and modifications of the jackknife by groups are used to estimate standard errors of rotated factor loadings for selected populations in common factor model maximum likelihood factor analysis. Simulations are performed in which t-statistics based upon these jackknife estimates of the standard errors are computed.…

The Effects of Sampling Error on Convergence, Improper Solutions, and Goodness-of-Fit Indices for Maximum Likelihood Confirmatory Factor Analysis.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Anderson, James C.; Gerbing, David W. – Psychometrika, 1984
This study of maximum likelihood confirmatory factor analysis found effects of practical significance due to sample size, the number of indicators per factor, and the number of factors for Joreskog and Sorbom's (1981) goodness-of-fit index (GFI), GFI adjusted for degrees of freedom, and the root mean square residual.
