A guide to exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) and bifactor-ESEM in body image research
Body Image, 2023 Traditionally, assessments of factor validity of body image instruments have relied on exploratory or confirmatory factor analysis. However, the emergence of exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM), a resurgence of interest in bifactor models, and the ability to combine both models (bifactor-ESEM) is beginning to shape the future of body image ...

Bifactor exploratory structural equation modeling: A meta-analytic review of model fit
Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 Multivariate behavioral research often focuses on latent constructs—such as motivation, self-concept, or wellbeing—that cannot be directly observed. Typically, these latent constructs are measured with items in standardized instruments.
