SEMsensitivity (version 0.1.0)

SEM Sensitivity Analysis

Description

Performs sensitivity analysis for Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). It determines which sample points need to be removed for the sign of a specific path in the SEM model to change, thus assessing the robustness of the model. Methodological manuscript in preparation.
