Computes an ECV index for each item which can be interpreted as the proportion of common variance of that item due to the general factor. Stucky and Edelen (2015, p. 201) define I-ECV, which is also computed in the Excel version of the bifactor indices calculator (Dueber, 2017).
1 | IECV(Lambda)

Lambda |
is a matrix of factor loadings. Be sure that all factors have the same variance before calling this function. |
IECV
is called by bifactorIndices
and the various convenience functions
for exploratory models and/or Mplus output,
which are the only functions in this package intended for casual users.
A vector of item ECVs
