Bootstrapping and the Identification of Exogenous Latent Variables within Structural Equation Models.

Hancock, Gregory R.; Nevitt, Jonathan

Structural Equation Modeling, v6 n4 p394-99 1999

Explains why, when one is using a bootstrapping approach for generating empirical standard errors for parameters of interest, the researchers must choose to fix an indicator path rather than the latent variable variance for the empirical standard errors to be generated properly. (SLD)
