impliedCov: Implied Covariance Matrix from a Field Model

In Dustin-Wood/funfield: Functional Field Functions

Implied Covariance Matrix from a Field Model

Description

This function will indicate the implied covariance matrix from a set of forces. (It seems like this should be done in lavaan through lavInspect(fit, "implied")$cov, but the covariances regularly seem to be over-accounted for by specified forces in a way that I have not figured out how to correct.)

(Note that this function was adapted from code previously buried inside function fieldResults.

Usage

impliedCov(fieldmat, covmat)

Arguments

fieldmat	field matrix - usually created from lavaan::sem
covmat	specify the observe correlations or covariances between the features

Value

Will return implied_cov, with implied covariances from the specified field model
