Parses a group of Mplus model output files (.out extension) for model fit statistics.
At this time, the details extracted are fixed and include: Filename, InputInstructions, Title, Estimator,
LL, BIC, aBIC, AIC, AICC, Parameters, Observations, CFI, TLI, RMSEA_Estimate, RMSEA_90CI_LB, RMSEA_90CI_UB,
RMSEA_pLT05, ChiSqM_Value, ChiSqM_DF, ChiSq_PValue, BLRT_KM1LL, BLRT_PValue, BLRT_Numdraws)
. The
infrastructure is in place to allow for user-specified selection of summary statistics in future versions.
extractModelSummaries(target = getwd(), recursive = FALSE, filefilter)

BLRT_2xLLDiff
: Two times the log-likelihood difference of the models with K and K-1 classes (TECH14).
BLRT_ParamDiff
: Difference in the number of parameters for models with K and K-1 classes (TECH14).
BLRT_PValue
: P-value of the Bootstrapped Likelihood Ratio Test (TECH14) testing whether the K class model is significantly better than K-1
BLRT_SuccessfulDraws
: The number of successful bootstrapped samples used in the Bootstrapped Likelihood Ratio Test
SRMR
