Estimation of firm performance from a MIMIC model [PDF]
Abstract In this paper we propose a new approach (based on the Multiple Indicator Multiple Cause (MIMIC) model of Joreskog and Goldberger (1975) to assess the performance of firms assuming that the ‘true’ firm performance is latent but there are many observable indicators of it.
