Mixture multigroup structural equation modelling for ordinal data
Abstract Social scientists often compare groups in terms of relations between latent variables (LV) (i.e. structural relations) using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). LVs are measured indirectly by questionnaires; thus, measurement invariance must be evaluated before comparisons can be made. To efficiently compare many groups, the recently proposed
