TLDR
The results of structural equation modeling supported the a priori structure of theMCQ and the inference of measurement invariance across the 3 dimensions, and the MCQ is available for measuring self-reported efforts to compensate for everyday memory losses.Abstract:
Recent research with the Memory Compensation Questionnaire (MCQ) has examined changes, functions, and correlates of compensatory strategy use in older adults. The twofold aim of this study was to test (a) the hypothesized structure of the MCQ and (b) structural equivalence across age, gender, and time. The 7-scale MCQ was designed to measure 5 compensatory mechanisms and 2 general aspects of compensatory awareness. The authors assembled a 3-wave (6-year) sample (N = 521; age = 55-85 years) from the Victoria Longitudinal Study. The results of structural equation modeling supported (a) the a priori structure of the MCQ and (b) the inference of measurement invariance across the 3 dimensions. Accordingly, the MCQ is available for measuring self-reported efforts to compensate for everyday memory losses.read more

Measuring interpersonal callousness in boys from childhood to adolescence: an examination of longitudinal invariance and temporal stability.
TL;DR: Investigating the structure and stability of interpersonal callousness using parent and teacher reports of IC behaviors in a cohort of inner-city boys assessed annually from ages 8 to 16 reveals significant stability of IC across 9 years of assessment.

Structure of four executive functioning tests in healthy older adults
TL;DR: Structural relations showed that poorer executive functioning performance was related to older age and lower fluid intelligence, and the single-factor structure of executive functioning was invariant across gender, and invariant (configural with limited metric) across age.

Everyday memory compensation: the impact of cognitive reserve, subjective memory, and stress
TL;DR: Analysis of relations between responses on the Memory Compensation Questionnaire and cognitive reserve, subjective memory, and life stress in 66 older adults indicated that compensation occurred in people whose IQ level was greater than their education level but not in peoplewhose IQ was commensurate with their education.

Alternative Ways of Assessing Model Fit

TL;DR: In this paper, two types of error involved in fitting a model are considered, error of approximation and error of fit, where the first involves the fit of the model, and the second involves the model's shape.
