In GAIPE: Graphical Extension with Accuracy in Parameter Estimation (GAIPE)

Sample size planning by power analysis on RMSEA

Description

Performs sample size planning by power analysis on RMSEA.

Usage

PA.RMSEA(df, method = c("exact.fit", "close.fit", "not.close.fit"),
H0rmsea, HArmsea, power = 0.8, alpha = 0.05)

Arguments

df	model degrees of freedom.
method	a character string specifying the hypothesis test for power analysis, must be one of "exact.fit", "close.fit", or "not.close.fit"(default).
H0rmsea	RMSEA for the null hypothesis.
HArmsea	RMSEA for the alternative hypothesis.
power	desired power value.
alpha	Type I error rate.

Value

Return the necessary sample size that achieves the desired power.
