Bentler, Peter M.; Satorra, Albert; Yuan, Ke-Hai – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2009
A typical structural equation model is intended to reproduce the means, variances, and correlations or covariances among a set of variables based on parameter estimates of a highly restricted model. It is not widely appreciated that the sample statistics being modeled can be quite sensitive to outliers and influential observations, leading to bias…

Botoseneanu, Anda; Alexander, Jeffrey A.; Banaszak-Holl, Jane – Health Education & Behavior, 2011
Genetic testing can advance cancer prevention if current screening behaviors improve. Increased prevalence of high-risk genotypes within specific religious groups, use of religious venues for recruiting to genetic screening, and ethical-religious considerations argue for exploring the role of religiosity in forming genetic testing decisions. This…
