Measurement Invariance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Multi-item surveys are frequently used to study scores on latent factors, like human values, attitudes and behavior. Such studies often include a comparison, between specific groups of individuals, either at one or multiple points in time. If such latent factor means are to be meaningfully compared, the measurement structures including the latent ...

The dire disregard of measurement invariance testing in psychological science.

open access: yesPsychological methods, 2023
Self-report scales are widely used in psychology to compare means in latent constructs across groups, experimental conditions, or time points. However, for these comparisons to be meaningful and unbiased, the scales must demonstrate measurement ...

Quantum Invariant Measures [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Mathematical Physics, 2001
We derive an explicit expression for the Haar integral on the quantized algebra of regular functions C_q[K] on the compact real form K of an arbitrary simply connected complex simple algebraic group G. This is done in terms of the irreducible *-representations of the Hopf *-algebra C_q[K]. Quantum analogs of the measures on the symplectic leaves of the

RECURRENCE AND THE EXISTENCE OF INVARIANT MEASURES [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Symbolic Logic, 2021
AbstractWe show that recurrence conditions do not yield invariant Borel probability measures in the descriptive set-theoretic milieu, in the strong sense that if a Borel action of a locally compact Polish group on a standard Borel space satisfies such a condition but does not have an orbit supporting an invariant Borel probability measure, then there ...

Measurement invariance in the social sciences: Historical development, methodological challenges, state of the art, and future perspectives.

open access: yesSocial Science Research, 2022
This review summarizes the current state of the art of statistical and (survey) methodological research on measurement (non)invariance, which is considered a core challenge for the comparative social sciences.

Revisiting the Middleton Alienation Scale: In Search of a Cross-Culturally Valid Instrument

open access: yesSurvey Research Methods, 2020
The article contributes to the issue how to deal with measurement non-variance. I address a well-established scale by Middleton (1963) which was created to measure alienation.

Testing Measurement Invariance over Time with Intensive Longitudinal Data and Identifying a Source of Non-invariance

open access: yes, 2022
Longitudinal measurement invariance (LMI) is a critical prerequisite to assessing change over time with intensive longitudinal data (ILD). For LMI testing with ILD, we propose cross-classified factor analysis (CCFA) to detect non-invariant item ...

Examining the Invariance of a Measurement Model by Using the Covariance Structure Approach

open access: yesInternational Journal of Contemporary Educational Research, 2022
The primary aim of the present study is to examine the measurement invariance of the structural equating model constructed on the numerical and verbal abilities test for sixth grade students across gender, amount of weekly pocket money and students ...

Comparing RMSEA-Based Indices for Assessing Measurement Invariance in Confirmatory Factor Models

open access: yesEducational and Psychological Measurement, 2023
Fit indices are descriptive measures that can help evaluate how well a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) model fits a researcher’s data. In multigroup models, before between-group comparisons are made, fit indices may be used to evaluate measurement ...
