Bauer, Daniel J.; Baldasaro, Ruth E.; Gottfredson, Nisha C. – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2012
Structural equation models are commonly used to estimate relationships between latent variables. Almost universally, the fitted models specify that these relationships are linear in form. This assumption is rarely checked empirically, largely for lack of appropriate diagnostic techniques. This article presents and evaluates two procedures that can…

Grimm, Kevin J.; An, Yang; McArdle, John J.; Zonderman, Alan B.; Resnick, Susan M. – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2012
Latent difference score models (e.g., McArdle & Hamagami, 2001) are extended to include effects from prior changes to subsequent changes. This extension of latent difference scores allows for testing hypotheses where recent changes, as opposed to recent levels, are a primary predictor of subsequent changes. These models are applied to…

Steiger, James H. – Psychological Methods, 2004
This article presents confidence interval methods for improving on the standard F tests in the balanced, completely between-subjects, fixed-effects analysis of variance. Exact confidence intervals for omnibus effect size measures, such as or and the root-mean-square standardized effect, provide all the information in the traditional hypothesis…

Plucker, Jonathan A. – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2004
The question of whether creativity is content general or content specific is one of the most controversial issues in contemporary creativity research. Recent studies provide support for both positions, but the results of these investigations may be influenced by several factors, including the presence of a method effect (i.e., psychometric vs.…
