[R] Simultaneous Comparison of Factor Structures

2008-11-27 Thread Mark Heckmann
Dear R Users,

 

I have a situation where I want to compare the factor structures of two
samples that were administered then same test.

AMOS as well as SAS provide the option of “simultaneous comparison of factor
structures” like it was proposed by Jöreskog (1971, Simultaneous factor
analysis in several populations).

Is there a way to do that in R? I am not sure if it is possible to model
this kind of comparison with e.g. the sem package and if it is possible, how
to do it.

 

A lot of thanks in advance!

 

Regards,

Mark Heckmann

Dear Mark,

Although I would like, at some point, to add this feature, the sem package
doesn't fit multiple-group models.

Sorry,
 John
