Score-based tests of measurement invariance : use in practice
Wang, Ting; Merkle, Edgar C.; Zeileis, Achim - 2013
In this paper, we consider a family of recently-proposed measurement invariance tests that are based on the scores of a … fitted model. This family can be used to test for measurement invariance w.r.t. a continuous auxiliary variable, without pre …-specification of subgroups. Moreover, the family can be used when one wishes to test for measurement invariance w.r.t. an ordinal …

Generalized measurement invariance tests with application to factor analysis
Merkle, Edgar C.; Zeileis, Achim - 2011
The issue of measurement invariance commonly arises in factor-analytic contexts, with methods for assessment including … groups, group membership, and offending model parameters. In this paper, we construct tests of measurement invariance based … measurement invariance violations, and (2) identifying subgroups of individuals that violated measurement invariance based on a …

Various versatile variances : an object-oriented implementation of clustered covariances in R
Berger, Susanne; Graham, Nathaniel; Zeileis, Achim - 2017
Clustered covariances or clustered standard errors are very widely used to account for correlated or clustered data, especially in economics, political sciences, or other social sciences. They are employed to adjust the inference following estimation of a standard least-squares regression or...

Behavioral determinants of home bias : theory and experiment
Dlugosch, Dennis; Horn, Kristian; Wang, Mei - 2014 - This version: April 6, 2014
We study portfolio diversification in an experimental decision task, where asset returns depend on a draw from an ambiguous urn. Holding other information identical and controlling for the level of ambiguity, we find that labeling assets as being familiar or from the homeland of subjects...

The limits of guilt
Balafoutas, Loukas; Fornwagner, Helena - 2016 - This version: 25 April 2016
According to the theory of guilt aversion, agents suffer a psychological cost whenever they fall short of other people's expectations. In this paper we suggest that there may be limits to this kind of motivation. We present evidence from an experimental dictator game showing that dictators...
