Timothy R. Konold; Elizabeth A. Sanders – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2024
Compared to traditional confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) has been shown to result in less structural parameter bias when cross-loadings (CLs) are present. However, when model fit is reasonable for CFA (over ESEM), CFA should be preferred on the basis of parsimony. Using simulations, the current…

Kelvin T. Afolabi; Timothy R. Konold – Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation, 2024
Exploratory structural equation (ESEM) has received increased attention in the methodological literature as a promising tool for evaluating latent variable measurement models. It overcomes many of the limitations attached to exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), while capitalizing on the benefits of each. Given…
