van Smeden, Maarten; Hessen, David J. – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2013
In this article, a 2-way multigroup common factor model (MG-CFM) is presented. The MG-CFM can be used to estimate interaction effects between 2 grouping variables on 1 or more hypothesized latent variables. For testing the significance of such interactions, a likelihood ratio test is presented. In a simulation study, the robustness of the…

Zhang, Zhiyong; Lai, Keke; Lu, Zhenqiu; Tong, Xin – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2013
Despite the widespread popularity of growth curve analysis, few studies have investigated robust growth curve models. In this article, the "t" distribution is applied to model heavy-tailed data and contaminated normal data with outliers for growth curve analysis. The derived robust growth curve models are estimated through Bayesian…
