Olivera-Aguilar, Margarita; Millsap, Roger E. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 2013
A common finding in studies of differential prediction across groups is that although regression slopes are the same or similar across groups, group differences exist in regression intercepts. Building on earlier work by Birnbaum (1979), Millsap (1998) presented an invariant factor model that would explain such intercept differences as arising due…

Austin, Peter C. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 2012
Researchers are increasingly using observational or nonrandomized data to estimate causal treatment effects. Essential to the production of high-quality evidence is the ability to reduce or minimize the confounding that frequently occurs in observational studies. When using the potential outcome framework to define causal treatment effects, one…

Culpepper, Steven Andrew – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 2009
This study linked nonlinear profile analysis (NPA) of dichotomous responses with an existing family of item response theory models and generalized latent variable models (GLVM). The NPA method offers several benefits over previous internal profile analysis methods: (a) NPA is estimated with maximum likelihood in a GLVM framework rather than…

Schluchter, Mark D. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 2008
In behavioral research, interest is often in examining the degree to which the effect of an independent variable X on an outcome Y is mediated by an intermediary or mediator variable M. This article illustrates how generalized estimating equations (GEE) modeling can be used to estimate the indirect or mediated effect, defined as the amount by…

Tisak, John – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1994
The regression coefficients and the associated standard errors in hierarchical regression, when a theoretical basis for the analysis exists, are determined for four regression models. Each reflects different controlling or partialling of the variates. An illustration is presented using data from the Berkeley Growth Study. (SLD)

Anderson, Lance E.; And Others – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1996
Simulations were used to compare the moderator variable detection capabilities of moderated multiple regression (MMR) and errors-in-variables regression (EIVR). Findings show that EIVR estimates are superior for large samples, but that MMR is better when reliabilities or sample sizes are low. (SLD)

Vermunt, Jeroen K. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 2005
A well-established approach to modeling clustered data introduces random effects in the model of interest. Mixed-effects logistic regression models can be used to predict discrete outcome variables when observations are correlated. An extension of the mixed-effects logistic regression model is presented in which the dependent variable is a latent…

Neale, Michael C.; And Others – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1994
In studies of relatives, conventional multiple regression may not be appropriate because observations are not independent. Obtaining estimates of regression coefficients and correct standard errors from these populations through a structural equation modeling framework is discussed and illustrated with data from twins.
