ABSTRACT Self‐concept and self‐efficacy have received much attention from second/foreign language (L2) researchers.

Augmented bifactor models and bifactor-(S-1) models are identical. A comment on Zhang, Luo, Zhang, Sun & Zhang (2023)

open access: yesStructural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal
In a recent study, Zhang, Luo, Zhang, Sun, and Zhang (2023) proposed the augmented oblique bifactor model as a new methodological contribution, in which an oblique bifactor model is augmented by one or more indicator(s). Zhang et al. (2023) argued that the augmented oblique bifactor model is superior to existing bifactor modeling approaches.

Riskier Tests of the Validity of Bifactor Models of Psychopathology

open access: yes, 2019
We advanced several “riskier tests” of the validity of bifactor models of psychopathology, which included that the general and specific factors should be reliable and well-represented by their indicators, and that including a general factor should improve the correlated factor model’s external validity.
