Direct linkStakhovych, Stanislav; Bijmolt, Tammo H. A.; Wedel, Michel – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 2012
In this article, we present a Bayesian spatial factor analysis model. We extend previous work on confirmatory factor analysis by including geographically distributed latent variables and accounting for heterogeneity and spatial autocorrelation. The simulation study shows excellent recovery of the model parameters and demonstrates the consequences…

Fu, Zhi-Hui; Tao, Jian; Shi, Ning-Zhong; Zhang, Ming; Lin, Nan – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 2011
Multidimensional item response theory (MIRT) models can be applied to longitudinal educational surveys where a group of individuals are administered different tests over time with some common items. However, computational problems typically arise as the dimension of the latent variables increases. This is especially true when the latent variable…

Austin, Peter C. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 2011
Propensity score methods allow investigators to estimate causal treatment effects using observational or nonrandomized data. In this article we provide a practical illustration of the appropriate steps in conducting propensity score analyses. For illustrative purposes, we use a sample of current smokers who were discharged alive after being…

Cook, Thomas D.; Steiner, Peter M.; Pohl, Steffi – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 2009
This study uses within-study comparisons to assess the relative importance of covariate choice, unreliability in the measurement of these covariates, and whether regression or various forms of propensity score analysis are used to analyze the outcome data. Two of the within-study comparisons are of the four-arm type, and many more are of the…

Peer reviewedVonk, Roos; Heiser, Willem J. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1991
A study involving 11 male and 11 female inhabitants of Leiden (Netherlands) tested the hypothesis that a subject's judgments of the personality of unfamiliar target persons correspond better with the subject's Implicit Personality Theory than do judgments of the personality of familiar persons. The results confirm the hypothesis. (TJH)

Peer reviewedTaylor, Terence R.; Chemel, Charles S. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1991
A questionnaire measuring affective, conative, and cognitive responses to 3 aspects of Black advancement in the workplace was administered to 128 White English-speaking and 140 Afrikaans-speaking South Africans. Results of confirmatory, single-group, and multigroup analyses of the data indicate that the structures were very similar across the…
