lavInspect | R Documentation |
The lavInspect()
and lavTech()
functions can be used to
inspect/extract information that is stored inside (or can be computed from) a
fitted lavaan object. Note: the (older) inspect()
function is
now simply a shortcut for lavInspect()
with default arguments.
lavInspect(object, what = "free", add.labels = TRUE, add.class = TRUE,
list.by.group = TRUE,
drop.list.single.group = TRUE)
lavTech(object, what = "free", add.labels = FALSE, add.class = FALSE,
list.by.group = FALSE,
drop.list.single.group = FALSE)
inspect(object, what = "free", ...)
object |
An object of class |
what |
Character. What needs to be inspected/extracted? See Details for a
full list. Note: the |
add.labels |
If |
add.class |

list.by.group |
Logical. Only used when the output are model matrices.

Additional arguments. Not used by lavaan, but by other packages. |
The lavInspect()
and lavTech()
functions only differ in the way
they return the results. The lavInspect()
function will prettify the
output by default, while the lavTech()
will not attempt to prettify the
output by default. The (older) inspect()
function is a simplified
version of lavInspect()
with only the first two arguments.
Below is a list of possible values for the what
argument, organized
in several sections:
Model matrices:
"free"
:A list of model matrices. The non-zero integers
represent the free parameters. The numbers themselves correspond
to the position of the free parameter in the parameter vector.
This determines the order of the model parameters in the output
of for example coef()
and vcov()
.
"partable"
:A list of model matrices. The non-zero integers
represent both the fixed parameters (for example, factor loadings
fixed at 1.0), and the free parameters if we ignore any equality
constraints. They correspond with all entries (fixed or free)
in the parameter table. See parTable
.
"se"
:A list of model matrices. The non-zero numbers
represent the standard errors for the free parameters in the model.
If two parameters are constrained to be equal, they will have the
same standard error for both parameters.
Aliases: "std.err"
and "standard.errors"
.
"start"
:A list of model matrices. The values represent
the starting values for all model parameters.
Alias: "starting.values"
.
"est"
:A list of model matrices. The values represent
the estimated model parameters. Aliases:
"estimates"
, and "x"
.
"dx.free"
:A list of model matrices. The values represent the gradient (first derivative) values of the model parameters. If two parameters are constrained to be equal, they will have the same gradient value.
"dx.all"
:A list of model matrices. The values represent
the first derivative with respect to all possible matrix elements.
Currently, this is only available when the estimator is "ML"
or "GLS"
.
"std"
:A list of model matrices. The values represent
the (completely) standardized model parameters (the variances of
both the observed and the latent variables are set to unity).
Aliases: "std.all"
, "standardized"
.
"std.lv"
:A list of model matrices. The values represent the standardized model parameters (only the variances of the latent variables are set to unity.)
"std.nox"
:A list of model matrices. The values represent the (completely) standardized model parameters (the variances of both the observed and the latent variables are set to unity; however, the variances of any observed exogenous variables are not set to unity; hence no-x.)
Information about the data:
"data"
:A matrix containing the observed variables
that have been used to fit the model. No column/row names are provided.
Column names correspond to the output of lavNames(object)
,
while the rows correspond to the output of
lavInspect(object, "case.idx"
.
"ordered"
:A character vector. The ordered variables.
"nobs"
:Integer vector. The number of observations in each group that were used in the analysis.
"norig"
:Integer vector. The original number of observations in each group.
"ntotal"
:Integer. The total number of observations that
were used in the analysis. If there is just a single group, this
is the same as the "nobs"
option; if there are multiple groups,
this is the sum of the "nobs"
numbers for each group.
"case.idx"
:Integer vector. The case/observation numbers that were used in the analysis. In the case of multiple groups: a list of numbers.
"empty.idx"
:The case/observation numbers of those cases/observations that contained missing values only (at least for the observed variables that were included in the model). In the case of multiple groups: a list of numbers.
"patterns"
:A binary matrix. The rows of the matrix
are the missing data patterns where 1 and 0 denote non-missing
and missing values for the corresponding observed variables
respectively (or
TRUE
and FALSE
if lavTech()
is used.)
If the data is complete (no missing values), there will be only
a single pattern. In the case of multiple groups: a list of
pattern matrices.
"coverage"
:A symmetric matrix where each element contains the proportion of observed datapoints for the corresponding pair of observed variables. In the case of multiple groups: a list of coverage matrices.
"group"
:A character string. The group variable in the data.frame (if any).
"ngroups"

size (using the formula
s = (N^2 - sum(cluster.size^2)) / (N*(nclusters - 1L))
).
For multigroup multilevel
models, a list containing the average cluster size per group.
Observed sample statistics:
"sampstat"
:Observed sample statistics. Aliases:
"obs"
, "observed"
, "samp"
, "sample"
,
"samplestatistics"
. Since
0.6-3, we always check if an h1 slot is available (the estimates
for the unrestricted model); if present, we extract the sample
statistics from this slot. This implies that if variables are
continuous, and missing = "ml"
(or "fiml"
), we
return the covariance matrix (and mean vector) as computed by
the EM algorithm under the unrestricted (h1) model. If the h1 is
not present (perhaps, because the model was fitted with
h1 = FALSE
), we return the sample statistics from the
SampleStats slot. Here, pairwise deletion is used for the elements
of the covariance matrix (or correlation matrix), and
listwise deletion for all univariate statistics (means, intercepts
and thresholds).

"wls.obs"
:The observed sample statistics (covariance elements, intercepts/thresholds, etc.) in a single vector.
