Adrian Quintero; Emmanuel Lesaffre; Geert Verbeke – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2024
Bayesian methods to infer model dimensionality in factor analysis generally assume a lower triangular structure for the factor loadings matrix. Consequently, the ordering of the outcomes influences the results. Therefore, we propose a method to infer model dimensionality without imposing any prior restriction on the loadings matrix. Our approach…

Larwin, Karen; Harvey, Milton – Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation, 2012
Establishing model parsimony is an important component of structural equation modeling (SEM). Unfortunately, little attention has been given to developing systematic procedures to accomplish this goal. To this end, the current study introduces an innovative application of the jackknife approach first presented in Rensvold and Cheung (1999). Unlike…
