The SEM Reliability Paradox in a Bayesian Framework
Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2023 Within the frequentist structural equation modeling (SEM) framework, adjudicating model quality through measures of fit has been an active area of methodological research. Complicating this conversation is research revealing that a higher quality measurement portion of a SEM can result in poorer estimates of overall model fit than lower quality ...
