On the evaluation of structural equation models

TLDR
In this article, structural equation models with latent variables are defined, critiqued, and illustrated, and an overall program for model evaluation is proposed based upon an interpretation of converging and diverging evidence.
Abstract
Criteria for evaluating structural equation models with latent variables are defined, critiqued, and illustrated. An overall program for model evaluation is proposed based upon an interpretation of converging and diverging evidence. Model assessment is considered to be a complex process mixing statistical criteria with philosophical, historical, and theoretical elements. Inevitably the process entails some attempt at a reconcilation between so-called objective and subjective norms.

Supply Chain Flexibility, Uncertainty and Firm Performance: An Empirical Analysis of German Manufacturing Firms

TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between environmental uncertainty, supply chain flexibility, and firm performance through a survey of German manufacturing companies is investigated. And the authors present evidence that in uncertain environments companies with highly flexible supply chains perform better than companies with less flexible supply chain while in certain environments the opposite holds.

Positive and Negative Antecedents of Purchasing Eco-friendly Products: A Comparison Between Green and Non-green Consumers

TL;DR: In this paper, a conceptual model of eco-friendly product purchase intention and behavior is proposed to analyze what drives and prevents the purchasing of ecofriendly products across different consumer groups and develops a conceptual approach embracing the positive altruistic (care for the environmental consequences of purchasing), positive ego-centric (green self-identity and moral obligation), and negative ego-centred (perceived personal inconvenience of purchasing eco-green products) antecedents of eco friendly product purchase intent and behavior.

Effects of theatrical elements on experiential quality and loyalty intentions for theme parks.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply consumption experience and theater theory and propose a model to explore the effects of theatrical elements of theme parks (including attractiveness of scripts, charm of setting, planning of activities and consistency of theme) on consumers' experiential quality (including immersion, surprise, participation and fun).

How strong is the business-to-business brand in the workforce? An empirically-tested model of 'internal brand equity' in a business-to-business setting

TL;DR: In this paper, a theoretically structured framework for the measurement of internal brand equity is proposed and empirically validated, and the findings offer evidence for the powerful impact of a brand-oriented corporate culture on internal Brand equity, and demonstrate its relationship to external brand equity.

Estimating the Dimension of a Model

TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of selecting one of a number of models of different dimensions is treated by finding its Bayes solution, and evaluating the leading terms of its asymptotic expansion.

Significance tests and goodness of fit in the analysis of covariance structures

TL;DR: In this article, a general null model based on modified independence among variables is proposed to provide an additional reference point for the statistical and scientific evaluation of covariance structure models, and the importance of supplementing statistical evaluation with incremental fit indices associated with the comparison of hierarchical models.
