I want estimate MIMIC latent variable with R in a Monte Carlo simulation. The packages plspm and semPLS don't permit to introduce MIMIC variable but only reflexives or formatives variables. The only one program which permits to use MIMIC latent variable with PLSPM seems to be XLSTAT, which can not be used to simulate a lot of data bases. It is a real challenge to develop a package with

Is there a way to use full information maximum likelihood (FIML) to estimate missing data in the sem package? For example, suppose I have a dataset with complete information on X1-X3, but missing data (MAR) on X4. Is there a way to use FIML in this case? I know lavaan and openmx allow you to do it, but I couldn't find anything in the documentation for the sem package. Thanks! -- Dustin Fife

Hi, I am wondering if anyone knows of an easy way to fit a saturated model using the sem package on raw data? Say the data were: mtcars[, c("mpg", "hp", "wt")] The model would estimate the three means (intercepts) of c("mpg", "hp", "wt"). The variances of c("mpg", "hp", "wt"). The covariance of mpg with

In my previous mail, I was asking help to fit structural equations models by using Partial Least Square (PLS) approch.I have used package plspm. I want to know how to manage moderating and mediating variables. I also want to show simultanously the graph of internal model and measurement model. Thks.

Hello, I am new to R and hope I will not seem ignorant in this post. I am currently using the plspm package by Gaston Sanchez accompanied by his text book. I have attempted to create a square matrix, which has seemed successful. I used the following code: > "Attitude" = c(1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0) > "Normative Beliefs" = c(1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0) > "Subjective

I am the guy who compiles the OpenMx binaries. We would be delighted to place our package on CRAN, once the project is stable enough so that we are comfortable releasing it to the larger public. Let's try to track down where I made a mistake. Our Makevars.in file contains the line: PKG_LIBS=$(FLIBS) $(BLAS_LIBS) $(LAPACK_LIBS) In addition, on the build machine I noticed that a copy of

Hi, I saw on the mailing list and in the NEWS file that some unsafe math transformations were disabled for the reference BLAS implementation that is used in R. We have a set of performance tests for the OpenMx library, and some of the tests have a x3-10 slowdown in R 2.12.0 versus 2.11.1. When I copy the shared library libRblas.0.dylib from the 2.11.1 installation into the 2.12.0 installation,

Hello All, Recently, I was asked to help out with an SEM cross-validation analysis. Initially, the project was based on "sample-splitting" where half of cases were randomly assigned to a training sample and half to a testing sample. Attempts to replicate a model developed in the training sample using the testing sample were not entirely successful. A number of parameter estimates were

Hi, I recently tried to estimate a linear unconditional latent growth curve on 7 repeated measures using lavaan (most recent version): modspec=' alpha =~ 1*read_g0 + 1*read_g1 + 1*read_g2 + 1*read_g3 + 1*read_g4 + 1*read_g5 + 1*read_g6 beta =~ 0*read_g0 + 1*read_g1 + 2*read_g2 + 3*read_g3 + 4*read_g4 + 5*read_g5 + 6*read_g6 ' gmod=lavaan(modspec, data=math, meanstructure=T,

Dear all, I would like to know if it is possible to estimate multi-group SEM by using R...

In R software,does it have packages about confirmatory factor analysis in R software? 3Q -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/confirmatory-factor-analysis-in-R-tp3347618p3347618.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Hi Sorry for the rather long message. I am trying to use the cfa command in the lavaan package to run a CFA however I am unsure over a couple of issues. I have @25 dichotomous variables, 300 observations and an EFA on a training dataset suggests a 3 factor model. After defining the model I use the command fit.dat <- cfa(model.1, data=my.dat, std.lv = T, estimator="WLSMV",

Does anyone know if someone is developing full-information maximum likelihood (FIML) estimation algorithms for basic regression functions, like glm()? I think that having FIML options for workhorse functions that typically use ML would give R an edge over other statistical software, given how well FIML performs in missing data situations compared to ML. While my current level of programming

I've just found the lavaan package, and I really appreciate it, as it seems to succeed with models that were failing in sem::sem. I need some clarification, however, in the output, and I was hoping the list could help me. I'll go with the standard example from the help documentation, as my problem is much larger but no more complicated than that. My question is, why is there one latent
