Structural equation modeling with AMOS: basic concepts, applications, and programming
TLDR
In this article, the EQS program is used to test the factorial verifiability of a theoretical construct and its invariance to a Causal Structure using the First-Order CFA model.Abstract:
Contents: Part I: Introduction. Structural Equation Models: The Basics. Using the EQS Program. Part II: Single-Group Analyses. Application 1: Testing for the Factorial Validity of a Theoretical Construct (First-Order CFA Model).

Sensitivity of Goodness of Fit Indexes to Lack of Measurement Invariance
TL;DR: In this article, the sensitivity of goodness of fit indexes to lack of measurement invariance at three commonly tested levels: factor loadings, intercepts, and residual variances was examined, and the most intriguing finding was that changes in fit statistics are affected by the interaction between the pattern of invariance and the proportion of invariant items.

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
Using PLS path modeling in new technology research: updated guidelines
TL;DR: This paper presents new developments, such as consistent PLS, confirmatory composite analysis, and the heterotrait-monotrait ratio of correlations, and updated guidelines of how to use PLS and how to report and interpret its results.

TL;DR: The development and psychometric evaluation of a second version of the Acceptance and Action Questionnaire (AAQ-II), which assesses the construct referred to as, variously, acceptance, experiential avoidance, and psychological inflexibility, indicates the satisfactory structure, reliability, and validity of this measure.
