Computes all available bifactor indices given an Mplus
.out file for a bifactor EFA
bifactorIndicesMplus_expl(
Lambda = file.choose(),
ItemsBySF = NULL,
LoadMin = 0.2
)
is an Mplus .out file. Defaults to an open file dialog box
is a list, indexed by factor, of vectors of item names belonging to each
factor. You must include the general factor in this list, and the list must have names which
match the factor names in Mplus. Defaults to NULL
, in which case composition of specific
factors in automated by comparing loadings to LoadMin
is the minimum loading size so that an item is considered to "belong" to a factor.
If ItemsBySF
is not provided, then items are assigned to factors based on whether their
loading on that factor is greater than LoadMin
. If ItemsBySF
is provided, then
warnings are issued whenever items load above LoadMin
on factors to which they do not belong,
or do not load above LoadMin
on factors to which they do belong,
A list of bifactor indices, including three different ECV indices, Omega, and OmegaH.
To use this function, simply call it without any arguments and a dialog box will pop up for you to select a .out file of an exploratory bifactor model.
EFA models are not currently (3/3/2020) supported by MplsuAutomation::ReadModels()
,
but they will be in the very near future, at which time this function will be completed.
