Arguments

object	An object of class INLAvaan.
type	If "std.lv", the standardized estimates are based on the variances of the (continuous) latent variables only. If "std.all", the standardized estimates are based on the variances of both (continuous) observed and latent variables. If "std.nox", the standardized estimates are based on the variances of both (continuous) observed and latent variables, but not the variances of exogenous covariates. Note that "std.nox" only differs from "std.all" if fixed.x = TRUE; if fixed.x = FALSE, the exogenous covariates are treated as random variables (and standardized) just like any other variable, and a warning is issued. Alternatively, type may be a vector of (observed) variable names (for example type = c("x1", "x2")); in that case only the parameters involving these variables are standardized (the other observed variables are left unstandardized). This is a generalization of "std.nox", where the (observed) exogenous x variables are the ones left unstandardized.
se	Logical. If TRUE, standard errors for the standardized parameters will be computed, together with a z-statistic and a p-value.
ci	If TRUE, confidence intervals are added to the output.
level	The confidence level required.
postmedian	Logical; if TRUE, include posterior median in estimates.
postmode	Logical; if TRUE, include posterior mode in estimates.
cov.std	Logical. If TRUE, the (residual) observed covariances are scaled by the square root of the Theta diagonal elements, and the (residual) latent covariances are scaled by the square root of the Psi diagonal elements. If FALSE, the (residual) observed covariances are scaled by the square root of the diagonal elements of the model-implied observed covariance matrix, and the (residual) latent covariances are scaled similarly using the model-implied covariance matrix of the latent variables. Documented explicitly here (rather than inherited) because lavaan >= 0.7-1 renamed this and the next three arguments to snake_case.
remove.eq	Logical. If TRUE, filter the output by removing all rows containing equality constraints, if any.
remove.ineq	Logical. If TRUE, filter the output by removing all rows containing inequality constraints, if any.
remove.def	Logical. If TRUE, filter the output by removing all rows containing parameter definitions, if any.
nsamp	The number of samples to draw from the approximate posterior distribution for the calculation of standardised estimates.
...	Additional arguments sent to lavaan::standardizedSolution().

Value

A data.frame containing standardised model parameters.
