In WebPower: Basic and Advanced Statistical Power Analysis

Statistical Power Analysis for SEM Based on Chi-square Difference Test

Description

This function is for SEM power analysis based on the chi-square difference test.

Usage

wp.mc.chisq.diff(full.model.pop, full.model, 
reduced.model, N=100, R=1000, alpha=0.05)

Arguments

full.model.pop	Full model (under the alternative hypothesis) with population parameters.
full.model	Full model (under the alternative hypothesis) lavaan specification.
reduced.model	Reduced model (under the null hypothesis) lavaan specification.
N	Sample size.
R	Number of Monte Carlo replications.
alpha	significance level chosed for the test. It equals 0.05 by default.

Value

An object of the power analysis.

power	Statistical power.
df	Degrees of freedom
chi.diff	Chi-square differences between the reduced model and the full model
