Exploratory bifactor measurement models in vocational behavior research
Journal of Vocational Behavior, 2020 Abstract We provide an overview of and guidance for applying exploratory bifactor models to vocational research. First, we describe bifactor models and highlight their potential and actual applications in vocational psychology. Second, we review the theoretical bases of bifactor models and offer methodological guidance to correctly implement and ...
