Approaches for Structural Investigations of Binary Data Using Confirmatory Factor Models

International Journal of Statistics and Probability, 2018
An investigation of the suitability of threshold-based and threshold-free approaches for structural investigations of binary data is reported. Both approaches implicitly establish a relationship between binary data following the binomial distribution on one hand and continuous random variables assuming a normal distribution on the other hand.

Pairwise stochastic approximation for confirmatory factor analysis of categorical data

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology
Abstract Pairwise likelihood is a limited‐information method widely used to estimate latent variable models, including factor analysis of categorical data. It can often avoid evaluating high‐dimensional integrals and, thus, is computationally more efficient than relying on the full likelihood.
