Bias of determinacy coefficients in confirmatory factor analysis based on categorical variables
André Beauducel, Norbert Hilger, Anneke Weide
The relevance of determinacy coefficients as indicators for the validity of factor score predictors has regularly been emphasized. Previous simulation studies revealed biased deter…
The trade-off between factor score determinacy and the preservation of inter-factor correlations
André Beauducel, Norbert Hilger, Tobias Kuhl
Regression factor score predictors have the maximum factor score determinacy, i.e., the maximum correlation with the corresponding factor, but they do not have the same inter-corre…
Correlation-preserving mean plausible values as a basis for prediction in the context of Bayesian structural equation modeling
André Beauducel, Norbert Hilger
Mean plausible values can be computed when Bayesian structural equation modeling (BSEM) is performed. As mean plausible values do not preserve the inter-factor correlations, they y…
Treating reflective indicators as causal-formative indicators in order to compute factor score estimates or unit-weighted scales
André Beauducel, Anja Leue, Norbert Hilger
Individual scores on common factors are required in some applied settings (e.g., business and marketing settings). Common factors are based on reflective indicators, but their scor…
