Confirmatory Factor Analysis In a previous post I did an exploratory and confirmation factor analysis, and measurement invariance work with data generated from the depression, anxiety, and stress scale (DASS). In that post there were no fit issues with the CFA or the measurement invariance models. However, this is often not the case when weContinue reading “A Deeper Dive into CFA and Measurement Invariance Fit Issues”

Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Measurement Invariance
Factor Analysis Many constructs of interest related to human behavior, attitude, identity, and motivation are not directly observable. For example, the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress scale (DASS) measures individuals’ perceptions of their depression, anxiety, and stress. We can not directly measure any of these constructs, so we refer to them as “latent variables”. We haveContinue reading “Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Measurement Invariance”
