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...

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 likelihood ratio tests, Lagrange multiplier tests, and Wald tests. These tests all require advance definition of the number of groups, group membership, and offending model...

Environmental regulation of a global pollution externality in a bilateral trade framework : the case of global warming, China and the US
Gwatipedza, Johnson; Barbier, Edward - 2013
Bilateral trade and capital flows have increased substantially between the United States and China yielding economic …) and the South (China) in the presence of a global pollution externality. Each country's share of global pollution depends … pressure on the US to raise environmental regulations on industry. Capital will move to China. Because the increased pollution …

Empirical methods for the law
Engel, Christoph - 2017
To their credit, empirical legal scholars try to live up to the highest methodological standards from the social sciences. But these standards do not always match the legal research question. This paper focuses on normative legal argument based on empirical evidence. Whether there is a normative...

On the use of spectral value decomposition for the construction of composite indices
Farnia, Luca - 2019
High dimensional composite index makes experts' preferences in setting weights a hard task. In the literature, one of the approaches to derive weights from a data set is Principal Component or Factor Analysis that, although conceptually different, they are similar in results when FA is based on...
