Journal ArticleDOI
In Search of Golden Rules: Comment on Hypothesis-Testing Approaches to Setting Cutoff Values for Fit Indexes and Dangers in Overgeneralizing Hu and Bentler's (1999) Findings
TL;DR: Hu and Bentler as mentioned in this paper proposed a more rigorous approach to evaluating decision rules based on GOF indexes and, on this basis, proposed new and more stringent cutoff values for many indexes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural equation models of latent interactions: evaluation of alternative estimation strategies and indicator construction.
TL;DR: The traditional constrained approach performed more poorly than did 3 new approaches--unconstrained, generalized appended product indicator, and quasi-maximum-likelihood (QML); the authors' new unconstrained approach was easiest to apply.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monotonicity of effect sizes: Questioning kappa-squared as mediation effect size measure.
Zhonglin Wen,Xitao Fan +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that κ² is not an appropriate effect size measure for mediation models, because of its lack of the property of rank preservation, and can lead to paradoxical results in multiple mediation models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural Equation Models of Latent Interactions: Clarification of Orthogonalizing and Double-Mean-Centering Strategies
TL;DR: It is recommended that applied researchers wanting to estimate latent interaction effects use the double-mean-centering strategy instead of either the single- Mean-Centering or orthogonalizing strategies, thus allowing them to ignore the cumbersome mean structure.
