Development and Validation of A
TL;DR: The results suggest that the LJQ is a reliable and valid instrument for evaluating LJ.
Journal ArticleDOI
An item response theory analysis of self-report measures of adult attachment.
TL;DR: The authors show how IRT techniques can be used to develop new attachment scales with desirable psychometric properties, and indicate that commonly used attachment scales can be improved in a number of important ways.

Cutoff criteria for fit indexes in covariance structure analysis : Conventional criteria versus new alternatives
Li-tze Hu,Peter M. Bentler +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the adequacy of the conventional cutoff criteria and several new alternatives for various fit indexes used to evaluate model fit in practice were examined, and the results suggest that, for the ML method, a cutoff value close to.95 for TLI, BL89, CFI, RNI, and G...

Causality: models, reasoning, and inference
TL;DR: The art and science of cause and effect have been studied in the social sciences for a long time as mentioned in this paper, see, e.g., the theory of inferred causation, causal diagrams and the identification of causal effects.

Testing Structural Equation Models
Kenneth A. Bollen,J. Scott Long +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Bollen et al. proposed a model fitting metric for Structural Equation Models, which is based on the Monte Carlo evaluation of Goodness-of-Fit measures.
