Raykov, Tenko; Marcoulides, George A. – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2010
A latent variable modeling approach for examining population similarities and differences in observed variable relationship and mean indexes in incomplete data sets is discussed. The method is based on the full information maximum likelihood procedure of model fitting and parameter estimation. The procedure can be employed to test group identities…
