The maximum likelihood alignment approach to testing for approximate measurement invariance: a paradigmatic cross-cultural application [PDF]

, 2017
Background: The impracticality of using the confirmatory factor analytic (CFA) approach in testing measurement invariance across many groups is now well known. A concerted effort to addressing these encumbrances over the last decade has resulted in a new

Why Measurement Invariance is Not Necessary for Valid Group Comparisons

, 2023
Measurement invariance is an important topic in the psychometric literature of group comparison in confirmatory factor analysis. It is frequently stated in the literature that measurement invariance is a prerequisite for the comparison of group means or ...

Semidefinite approximations of invariant measures for polynomial systems

Discrete and Continuous Dynamical Systems - B, 2019
We consider the problem of approximating numerically the moments and the supports of measures which are invariant with respect to the dynamics of continuous- and discrete-time polynomial systems, under semialgebraic set constraints. First, we address the problem of approximating the density and hence the support of an invariant measure which is ...

Development of a latent dementia index in the aging, demographics, and memory study: Validation and measurement invariance by sex

Alzheimer’s & Dementia: Diagnosis, Assessment & Disease Monitoring, 2023
Latent variable models can create a latent dementia index (LDI) using cognitive and functional ability to approximate dementia likelihood. The LDI approach has been applied across diverse cohorts.

Testing Measurement Invariance over Time with Intensive Longitudinal Data and Identifying a Source of Non-invariance

, 2022
Longitudinal measurement invariance (LMI) is a critical prerequisite to assessing change over time with intensive longitudinal data (ILD). For LMI testing with ILD, we propose cross-classified factor analysis (CCFA) to detect non-invariant item ...

Measurement Invariance of Liberal and Authoritarian Notions of Democracy: Evidence From the World Values Survey and Additional Methodological Considerations

Frontiers in Political Science, 2021
This article offers a gentle introduction to the measurement invariance (MI) literature with a focus on its relevance to comparative political research. It reviews 1) the conceptual foundations of MI; 2) standard procedures of testing for MI in practical

Measurement invariance in the social sciences: Historical development, methodological challenges, state of the art, and future perspectives [PDF]

, 2022
This review summarizes the current state of the art of statistical and (survey) methodological research on measurement (non)invariance, which is considered a core challenge for the comparative social sciences.
