sesem (version 1.0.1)

avg.modindices: Function to display averaged modification indices for a spatial SEM

Description

Modification indices averaged across all lag distance bins (the non-spatial bin is not included) are calculated for each potential path addition to the structural model. Option modcut suppresses the printing of modification indices of less than that value.

Usage

avg.modindices(spatial_model_results, modcut = 4)

Arguments

spatial_model_results
a list object produced by function runModels
modcut
The minimum averaged modification index to print. Default is 4.
