Extract the effective sample size, i.e. sample size minus the loss in degrees of freedom caused by the estimation of the parameters.

# S3 method for lvmfit2
nobs2(object, ...)
Numeric vector of length the number of endogenous variables.
a lvmfit or lvmfit2 object (i.e. output of lava::estimate or lavaSearch2::estimate2).
[character] method used to correct the small sample bias of the variance coefficients: no correction ("none"/FALSE/NA),
correct the first order bias in the residual variance ("residual"), or correct the first order bias in the estimated coefficients "cox").
Only relevant when using a lvmfit object.
additional argument passed to estimate2 when using a lvmfit object.
When argument object is a lvmfit object, the method first calls estimate2 and then extract the leverage.
estimate2 to obtain lvmfit2 objects.
