With its emphasis on practical and conceptual aspects, rather than
mathematics or formulas, this accessible book has established itself
as the go-to resource on confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Detailed,
worked-through examples drawn from psychology, management, and
sociology studies illustrate the procedures, pitfalls, and extensions
of CFA methodology. The text shows how to formulate, program, and
interpret CFA models using popular latent variable software packages
(LISREL, Mplus, EQS, SAS/CALIS); understand the similarities and
differences between CFA and exploratory factor analysis (EFA); and
report results from a CFA study. It is filled with useful advice and
tables that outline the procedures. The companion website
(www.guilford.com/brown3-materials) offers data and program syntax
files for most of the research examples, as well as links to
CFA-related resources. New to This Edition *Updated throughout to
incorporate important developments in latent variable modeling.
*Chapter on Bayesian CFA and multilevel measurement models. *Addresses
new topics (with examples): exploratory structural equation modeling,
bifactor analysis, measurement invariance evaluation with categorical
indicators, and a new method for scaling latent variables. *Utilizes
the latest versions of major latent variable software packages.
