setDominantIndicator

Internal: Set the dominant indicator

Description

Set the dominant indicator for each construct. Since the sign of the weights, and thus the loadings is often not determined, a dominant indicator can be chosen per block. The sign of the weights are chosen that the correlation between the dominant indicator and the composite is positive.

Usage

setDominantIndicator(
 .W                   = args_default()$.W,
 .dominant_indicators = args_default()$.dominant_indicators, 
 .S                   = args_default()$.S
 )

Arguments

`.W`	A (J x K) matrix of weights.
`.dominant_indicators`	A character vector of `"construct_name" = "indicator_name"` pairs, where `"indicator_name"` is a character string giving the name of the dominant indicator and `"construct_name"` a character string of the corresponding construct name. Dominant indicators may be specified for a subset of the constructs. Default to `NULL`.
`.S`	The (K x K) empirical indicator correlation matrix.

Value

The (J x K) matrix of weights with the dominant indicator set.
