"to show commands and syntaxes in the results window". Oftentimes, it is
hard to figure out the syntax when making minor edits to a graph....it
would be so helpful if we could see the syntax that makes the change.
....and the others about improving the -sem- module. It is a great tool,
particularly because it is the first version, and it has many advantages
vis-à-vis other programs (e.g., like MPlus). However, it would be good
if -sem- could be fine tuned on a couple of things:
1. robust overdidentification (chi-square) statistic for modules with
continuous indicators of latent variables
2. categorical indicators of latent variables and categorical dependent
variables (with a robust Weighted Least Squares statistic, e.g., see:
Flora, D. B., & Curran, P. J. (2004). An empirical evaluation of
alternative methods of estimation for confirmatory factor analysis with
ordinal data. Psychological Methods, 9(4), 466-491.
Muthén, B. O. (1984). A general structural equation model with
dichotomous, ordered categorical, and continuous latent variable
indicators. Psychometrika, 49(1), 115-132.
Muthén, B. O., du Toit, S. H. C., & Spisic, D. (in press). Robust
inference using weighted least squares and quadratic estimating
equations in latent variable modeling with categorical and continuous
outcomes. Psychometrika.
All the best to all for the new year.
