Description

This function provides the summary of the population misfit and misspecified-parameter values across replications. The summary will be summarized for the convergent replications only.

Usage

Arguments

Value

A data frame that provides the summary of population misfit and misspecified-parameter values imposed on the real parameters.

The discrepancy value (f_0; Browne & Cudeck, 1992) is calculated by

F_0 = tr≤ft( \tilde{Σ} Σ^{-1} \right) - \log{≤ft| \tilde{Σ} Σ^{-1} \right|} - p + ≤ft( \tilde{μ} - μ \right)^{\prime} Σ^{-1} ≤ft( \tilde{μ} - μ \right).

where μ is the model-implied mean from the real parameters, Σ is the model-implied covariance matrix from the real parameters, \tilde{μ} is the model-implied mean from the real and misspecified parameters, \tilde{Σ} is the model-implied covariance matrix from the real and misspecified parameter, p is the number of indicators. For the multiple groups, the resulting f_0 value is the sum of this value across groups.

The root mean squared error of approximation (rmsea) is calculated by

rmsea = √{\frac{f_0}{df}}

where df is the degree of freedom in the real model.

The standardized root mean squared residual (srmr) can be calculated by

srmr = √{\frac{2∑_{g} ∑_{i} ∑_{j ≤ i} ≤ft( \frac{s_{gij}}{√{s_{gii}}√{s_{gjj}}} - \frac{\hat{σ}_{gij}}{√{\hat{σ}_{gii}}√{\hat{σ}_{gjj}}} \right)}{g \times p(p + 1)}}

where s_{gij} is the observed covariance between indicators i and j in group g, \hat{σ}_{ij} is the model-implied covariance between indicators i and j in group g, p is the number of indicators.
