A Bifactor Approach to Dimensionality Assessment [PDF]
, 2020 Bifactor confirmatory factor analysis models and statistical indices computed from them have previously been used to provide evidence for the appropriateness of utilizing a unidimensional interpretation of multidimensional data. However, the ability of bifactor indices to aid in the assessment of subscore strength has not been investigated.

Empirical Underidentification with the Bifactor Model: A Case Study [PDF]
Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2017 Bifactor models are commonly used to assess whether psychological and educational constructs underlie a set of measures. We consider empirical underidentification problems that are encountered when fitting particular types of bifactor models to certain types of data sets.

Fluxgate Sensor with Bifactor Excitation Mode
Sensors, 2023 The paper considers non-destructive testing (NTDs) as a means to solve the flaw detection problems of magnetic products. It proposes a new probe-coil magnetic-field NDT, not requiring the pre-magnetization of the test object material, which is mandatory for all conventional magnetic flaw detection techniques.

Identifiability of Bifactor Models
Statistica Sinica, 2020 The bifactor model and its extensions are multidimensional latent variable models, under which each item measures up to one subdimension on top of the primary dimension(s). Despite their wide applications to educational and psychological assessments, this type of multidimensional latent variable models may suffer from non-identifiability, which can ...
