James Ohisei Uanhoro – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2024
Accounting for model misspecification in Bayesian structural equation models is an active area of research. We present a uniquely Bayesian approach to misspecification that models the degree of misspecification as a parameter--a parameter akin to the correlation root mean squared residual. The misspecification parameter can be interpreted on its…

Valente, Matthew J.; Gonzalez, Oscar; Miocevic, Milica; MacKinnon, David P. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2016
Methods to assess the significance of mediated effects in education and the social sciences are well studied and fall into two categories: single sample methods and computer-intensive methods. A popular single sample method to detect the significance of the mediated effect is the test of joint significance, and a popular computer-intensive method…

DiLalla, Lisabeth Fisher; John, Sufna Gheyara – Merrill-Palmer Quarterly: Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2014
Peer victimization appears heritable, but it is unclear whether the traits that confer genetic risk require time and familiarity with a perpetrator to manifest or whether novel and brief interactions can lead to received aggression that demonstrates similar genetic risk. We examined 20-minute, peer-play interactions between 5-year-olds, pairing…

Shipley, Bill – Structural Equation Modeling, 2003
Shows how to extend the inferential test of B. Shipley (2000), which is applicable to recursive path models without correlated errors, to a class of recursive path models that includes correlated errors. Discusses when the extended model is and is not superior to classical structural equation modeling. (SLD)
