A Metric Measure for Direct Comparison of Competing Models in Covariance Structure Analysis.

Kumar, Ajith; Sharma, Subhash

Structural Equation Modeling, v6 n2 p169-97 1999

Demonstrates the advantages of Rao's Distance (C. Rao, 1949) over the root mean residual square for model comparisons using an analysis of a sample of multitrait-multimethod data. A simulation study shows that the true orderings of intermodel proximities are received with a fair degree of accuracy. (Author/SLD)
