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…

Harring, Jeffrey R.; Kohli, Nidhi; Silverman, Rebecca D.; Speece, Deborah L. – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2012
A conditionally linear mixed effects model is an appropriate framework for investigating nonlinear change in a continuous latent variable that is repeatedly measured over time. The efficacy of the model is that it allows parameters that enter the specified nonlinear time-response function to be stochastic, whereas those parameters that enter in a…

Zhang, Zhiyong; McArdle, John J.; Wang, Lijuan; Hamagami, Fumiaki – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2008
Bayesian methods are becoming very popular despite some practical difficulties in implementation. To assist in the practical application of Bayesian methods, we show how to implement Bayesian analysis with WinBUGS as part of a standard set of SAS routines. This implementation procedure is first illustrated by fitting a multiple regression model…

Asparouhov, Tihomir; Muthen, Bengt – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2009
Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) is a frequently used multivariate analysis technique in statistics. Jennrich and Sampson (1966) solved a significant EFA factor loading matrix rotation problem by deriving the direct Quartimin rotation. Jennrich was also the first to develop standard errors for rotated solutions, although these have still not made…
