▼ A widely used tool for testing measurement invariance is multi-group confirmatory factor analysis (MCFA). Identification of MCFA models is usually done by imposing invariance constraints on parameters of chosen reference variables (RV). If the chosen RVs were not actually invariant, one could draw invalid conclusions regarding the source of noninvariance. How can an invariant RV be selected accurately? To our knowledge, no method is yet available, yet two approaches have been suggested to detect non-invariant (or invariant) items without choosing specific RVs. One is the factor-ratio test (FR-T), and the other is the use of the largest modification index (Max-Mod). These two approaches have yet to be directly compared under the same conditions. To address unsolved problems in partial measurement invariance testing, two studies were conducted. The first aimed to identify a truly invariant RV using the smallest modification index. The second aimed to directly compare the performances of FR-T and the backward approach using the Max-Mod in correctly specifying the source of noninvariance. The second study also proposes a new method—the forward approach facilitated by the bias-corrected bootstrapping confidence intervals. The performances of the three methods was compared in terms of perfect recovery rates, model-level Type I error rates, and model-level Type II error rates. The results of the first study indicated that the Min-Mod successfully identify a truly invariant RV across all conditions. In the second study, overall, the backward approach also showed best performance under 99% confidence level (α = 0.01) in both partial metric invariance (PMI) and partial scalar invariance (PSI) conditions. The performance of the forward approach was comparable with that of the backward approach only in PMI conditions. The factor-ratio test had the poorest performance. Limitations and future directions are also discussed.

▼ Standardized intelligence tests are some of the most widely used tests by psychologists. Of these, clinicians most frequently use the Wechsler scales of intelligence. The most recent version of this test for children is the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children - Fourth Edition (WISC-IV); given the multiple test revisions that have occurred with the WISC, it is essential to address evidence regarding the structural validity of the test; specifically, that the internal structure of the test corresponds with the structure of the theoretical construct being measured. The current study is the first to investigate the factor structure of the WISC-IV across time for the same individuals. Factorial invariance of the WISC-IV was investigated using a group of 352 students eligible for psychoeducational evaluations tested, on average, 2.8 years apart. One research question was addressed: Does the structure of the WISC-IV remain invariant for the same individuals across time? Using structural equation modeling methods for a four-factor oblique model of the WISC-IV, this study found invariance at the configural and weak levels and partial invariance at the strong and strict levels. This indicated that the overall factor structure remained the same at test and retest with equal precision of the factor loadings at both time points. Three subtest intercepts (BD, CD, and SI) were not equivalent across test and retest; additionally, four subtest error variances (BD, CD, SI, and SS) were not equivalent across test and retest. These results indicate that the WISC-IV measures the same constructs equally well across time, and differences in an individual's cognitive profile can be safely interpreted as reflecting change in the underlying construct across time rather than variations in the test itself. This allows clinicians to be more confident in interpretation of changes in the overall cognitive profile of individual's across time. However, this study's results did not indicate that an individual's test scores should be compared across time. Overall, it was concluded that there is partial measurement invariance of the WISC-IV across time, with invariance of all factor loadings, invariance of all but three intercepts, and invariance of all but four item error variances.

▼ Most previous studies have argued that the validity of group comparisons of structural parameters is dependent on the extent to which measurement invariance is met. Although some researchers have supported the concept of partial invariance, there is still no clear-cut partial invariance level which is needed to make valid group comparisons. In addition, relatively little attention has been paid to the implications of failing measurement invariance (e.g., partial measurement invariance) on group comparison on the underlying latent constructs in the multiple-group confirmatory factor analysis (MGCFA) framework. Given this, the purpose of the current study was to examine the extent to which measurement noninvariance affects structural parameter comparisons across populations in the MGCFA framework. Particularly, this study takes a Bayesian approach to investigate the sensitivity of the posterior distribution of structural parameter difference to varying types and magnitudes of noninvariance across two populations. A Monte Carlo simulation was performed to empirically investigate the sensitivity of structural parameters to varying types and magnitudes of noninvariant measurement models across two populations from a Bayesian approach. In order to assess the sensitivity of noninvariance conditions, three outcome variables were evaluated: (1) accuracy of statistical conclusion on structural parameter difference, (2) precision of the estimated structural parameter difference, and (3) bias in the posterior mean of structural parameter difference. Inconsistent with findings of previous studies, the results of this study showed that the three outcome variables were not sensitive to varying types and magnitudes of noninvariance across all conditions. Instead, the three outcome variables were sensitive to sample size, factor loading size, and prior distribution. These results indicate that even under a large magnitude of measurement noninvariance, accurate conclusions and inferences on structural parameter differences across populations could be obtained in the MGCFA framework. Implications for practice are discussed for applied researchers who wish to conduct group comparisons of structural parameters across populations under measurement noninvariance.

▼ Measurement equivalent/invariance is a key concept in psychological testing. Failing to correctly identify non-invariant items can lead biased group comparisons and biased selections. The methodological literature on measurement equivalent/invariance (ME/I) and specification searches in structural equation modeling (SEM) usually consider only complete data. In practice, ME/I tests are often done on Likert scales which involve ordinal variables. Missing data on ordinal variables can be problematic in ME/I tests based on the chi-square statistic ( ) and modification indices. To deal with missing ordinal data, a recommended strategy is to combine multiple imputation with weighted least squares estimation methods. However, both statistic and modification indices are not available with this strategy. Consequently, researchers have to adopt “suboptimal” methods: 1) use full information maximum likelihood (FIML) by treating ordinal data as normally distributed continuous data; 2) use robust FIML by treating ordinal data as non-normally distributed continuous data; and, 3) use weighted least squares (WLSMV) estimators with suboptimal missing data handling techniques, such as pairwise deletion. Previous studies have found that any of the strategies may bias the point estimates and statistics in SEM. Yet, there has been no systematic comparison of the suboptimal strategies, especially in the context of ME/I tests or chi-square difference tests (Δ tests). Thus, the goals of my dissertation are to investigate the relative performance of these commonly used suboptimal strategies on the Δ tests and modification indices in ME/I testing with ordinal missing data. Two simulation studies were conducted. Study 1 aimed to compare the three strategies in terms of the accuracy and efficiency of parameter estimates as well as the type I error rate and power of Δ tests. Study 2 aimed to examine the relative performance of the strategies on specification search. I investigated three backward specification search methods based on the largest modification index using the three suboptimal methods described above and compared it to a recently proposed forward specification search method based on confidence intervals (CI approach), which can be implemented in the “optimal” approach of WLSMV using multiple imputations. The first simulation study showed that when the target data set contains a substantive amount of ordinal missing data, using the Δ tests and modification indices obtained from WLSMV with pairwise deletion lead to a substantive inflation of type I error rates. In contrast, the Δ tests and modification indices obtained from FIML approaches had a better ability to control the type error with sufficient power to test measurement invariance under most conditions. However, parameter estimates were biased for the FIML approaches. In the second simulation study, FIML based modification indices could identify more effectively the correct invariant factor loadings than the modification indices from the WLSMV estimator using pairwise deletion… Advisors/Committee Members: Brandt, Holger (advisor), Brandt, Holger (cmtemember), Wu, Wei (cmtemember), Watts, Amber (cmtemember), Forbush, Kelsie (cmtemember), Johnson, Paul (cmtemember).

▼ The purpose of the current study was to evaluate aspects of structural validity for the Social Skills Improvement System Rating Scales, Parent Form (SSIS-PF). Data were obtained from the SSIS-PF standardization sample. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was applied to examine the instrument’s first-order and higher-order measurement structures. Resulting baseline measurement models were subsequently analyzed for invariance across two variables. Specifically, measurement invariance was examined as a function of race/ethnicity using subsamples of African American, Latino, and Caucasian children. Invariance then was examined as a function of the language in which rating scales were written (i.e., English or Spanish). For both analyses, multi-sample CFA procedures were used to examine invariance at the configural, metric, and structural levels. Initial analyses provided support for the first-order measurement structure of the SSIS-PF, though there was some evidence of a lack of discriminant validity between select subscales (Cooperation and Responsibility). The instrument’s higher-order measurement structure showed evidence of reduced fit to standardization data relative to the first-order model. Follow-up analysis of the higher-order measurement structure of the SSiS-PF was conducted, and an alternative structure was identified. Results of the invariance analyses with first-order baseline models suggested that the SSIS-PF demonstrates configural, metric, and structural invariance as a function of race/ethnicity. Configural and metric invariance were supported in the language format analysis, but structural invariance was not observed across English and Spanish language groups. Results are discussed in reference to implications for the use of the SSIS-PF as well as broader considerations for cross-cultural social skills assessment.

▼ Multiple-indicators multiple-causes (MIMIC) modeling is often employed for measurement invariance testing under the structural equation modeling framework. This Monte Carlo study explored the behaviors of MIMIC as a measurement invariance testing method in different research situations. First, the performance of MIMIC under the factor loading noninvariance conditions was investigated through model fit evaluations and likelihood ratio tests. This study demonstrated that the violation of factor loading invariance was not detected by any of the typically reported model fit indices. Consistently, the likelihood ratio tests for MIMIC models exhibited poor performance in identifying noninvariance in factor loadings. That is, MIMIC was insensitive to the presence of factor loading noninvariance, which implies that factor loading invariance should be examined through other measurement invariance testing techniques. To control Type I error inflation in detecting the noninvariance of intercepts or thresholds, this simulation study with both continuous and categorical variables employed the likelihood ratio test with two critical value adjustment strategies, Oort adjustment and Bonferroni correction. The simulation results showed that the likelihood ratio test with Oort adjustment not only controlled Type I error rates below the basal Type I error rates but also maintained high power across study conditions. However, it was observed that power to detect the noninvariant variables slightly attenuated with multiple (i.e., two) noninvariant variables in a model. Given that the modification index is the chi-square difference after relaxing one parameter for estimation, this study investigated modification indices under four research scenarios based on a combination of the cutoffs of modification indices and the procedures of model modification: (a) the noniterative method (i.e., modification indices at the initial stage of model modification) using the conventional critical value, (b) the noniterative method using the Oort adjusted critical value, (c) the iterative procedure of model modification using the conventional critical value, and (d) the iterative procedure using the Oort adjustment. The iterative model search procedure using modification indices showed high performance in detecting noninvariant variables even without critical value adjustment, which indicates that iterative model search specification does not require critical value adjustment in identifying the noninvariance correctly. On the other hand, when the noniterative procedure was used, the Oort adjustment yielded adequate results. Advisors/Committee Members: Willson, Victor L.

▼ While testing criminological theories and concepts in cross national studies provides a chance to establish the scientific generalizability of specific causal mechanisms across different countries, comparative criminologists must overcome both theoretical and methodological challenges while conducting their research. Given that most criminological theories and measurement instruments are derived from the United States and Western cultural settings, critical issues arise when criminologists are conducting cross national research including non-Western countries. Cross national research should use instruments that measure the same psychometric construct in all countries in the same manner; therefore, this dissertation tests the measurement invariance of the indicators as an important first step prior to testing of the generalizability of a set of hypotheses across a number of national contexts. The dissertation attempts to integrate aspects of three criminological theories social bonding theory, lifestyle/routine activities theory, and self-control theory and to test its cross-national generalizability. Specifically, the mediating and moderating effects of social bonding and routine activities on delinquency are examined. Moreover, drawing from Institutional Anomie theory, this study examines the moderating effect of country level social contextual characteristics of economic dominance on the relationship between individuals predictors and their violent and property criminal offending. The data are 44,221 7th, 8th and 9th graders from 24 countries collected by the second wave of International Self-Report Delinquency Study (ISRD2). The findings from measurement invariance testing confirmed partial metric invariance among responses to the scales measuring attachment to significant others, delinquent peers, and low self-control. Consistent with earlier analyses of the ISRD2 data (Marshall & Enzmann 2012), the hypotheses derived from social bonding, self-control theory, and routine activity theory found support among the sample. On the other hand, the expected mediating variables did not mediate between adolescents level of low self-control and violent and property criminal offending. Examination of the moderating effect of country level economic institutions [i.e. Gini index and the index of economic freedom (developed by the Heritage Foundation)] provides some support for the implications of Institutional Anomie Theory. The results reported that adolescents low self-control, attachment to parents, school, and neighborhood, and delinquent peers had significant impact on their delinquent offending. In addition, the effect of low self-control on violent criminal offending was stronger among adolescents living in countries with higher level of economic dominance than the group of countries with a lower level of economic dominance. On the other hand, the effect of attachment to parents on violent criminal offending is stronger among adolescents living in countries with lower level of economic dominance. The findings…

▼ Objective: Rates of body dissatisfaction and eating disorders have increased in racial and ethnic minority groups, and yet the validity of various commonly-used eating disorder instruments has not been established in these populations. The primary goal of this study was to test the measurement invariance of one such measure, the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE-Q), across a non-clinical sample of non-Hispanic white and Hispanic undergraduate women. Secondary goals of this study were to determine the factor structure of the EDE-Q in this sample, provide information on EDE-Q norms in a non-clinical sample of Hispanic undergraduate women, and examine the effect of acculturation on EDE-Q scores. Method: As part of a larger body image and eating disorder study, female undergraduates were recruited from a large university in the Southwestern United States. The current study focused on a single measure of eating disorder psychopathology, the EDE-Q, and a measure of ethnic identification, the Orthogonal Cultural Identification Scale (OCIS). Factor analysis and measurement invariance of the EDE-Q were tested in non-Hispanic white and Hispanic samples. Results: Confirmatory factor analyses (CFAs) indicated that only one of the six previously reported EDE-Q factor structures, a modified 7-item 3 factor structure of the EDE-Q previously reported by Grilo et al. (2013; 2015), was an acceptable fit of the data in both non-Hispanic white and Hispanic women. Tests of measurement invariance showed that there was configural invariance of the EDE-Q across non-Hispanic white and Hispanic women, indicating that the factor structure was the same across groups. Yet, a test of metric invariance indicated that the factor loadings were not the same across groups. Results from Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) suggested that levels of acculturation to Anglo/White culture was a significant predictor of EDE-Q scores above and beyond ethnic identity, such that greater orientation to Anglo/White culture was associated with higher dietary restraint and lower body dissatisfaction. Discussion: A modified 3 factor structure of the EDE-Q was an acceptable fit in both non-clinical samples of non-Hispanic white and Hispanic undergraduate women. However, tests of measurement invariance indicated that the EDE-Q performed differently across non-Hispanic white and Hispanic women. Thus, researchers should be careful when using the EDE-Q to make comparisons across these groups. Additionally, there needs to be further empirical testing of the factor structure of the EDE-Q given that five other previously reported EDE-Q factor structures failed to fit the data from this sample. Level of acculturation may be an important predictor of body dissatisfaction and ED symptomatology in ethnically diverse women and an area for future research.

► The MMPI-2 is one of the most widely used tests of personality and psychopathology in both clinical and research settings (Archer & Newsom, 2000; Butcher,… (more)

▼ The MMPI-2 is one of the most widely used tests of personality and psychopathology in both clinical and research settings (Archer & Newsom, 2000; Butcher, Rouse & Steven, 1996; Smith, Gorske, Wiggins & Little, 2010). It is suggested the neurological damage from a traumatic brain injury (TBI) can falsely inflate MMPI-2 profiles. Following this theory, the Gass (1991) correction procedure removes 14 items from the MMPI-2. Widespread use of the correction procedure continues despite conflicting results from replication studies. In this study measurement invariance analysis was completed separately on MMPI-2 scales Hs1, Hy3 and Sc8 to assess the Gass correction procedure. A TBI sample (n=254) and a sample generated from the MMPI-2 normative data (n=2600) was used for measurement invariance testing. In measurement invariance Test 1 (baseline model test) all residuals and one item loading for each factor were held to equality. In Test 2 (strict invariance test), all parameters were held to equality across groups. The requirement of invariance is that CFI decrease by equal to or less than .002 (Meade, Johnson and Braddy, 2008). If a model failed the test of strict invariance then a partial invariance model was defined using the backwards elimination procedure. Practical impact analysis was completed using the Millsap and Kwok (2004) procedure to assess the clinical effect from a failure to establish strict invariance. Prior to measurement invariance testing, exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were employed to define a factor model in Hs1, Hy3 and Sc8. A 4-Factor model was selected as best representing the 32 items from Hs1. In Test 1 the model produced reasonable fit indices (RMSEA = .023, CFI = .947, TLI = .943). In Test 2 the decrease in CFI was above the threshold of invariance (RMSEA = .025, CFI = .932, TLI = .930). A partial invariance model was defined with the parameters for four items freed (RMSEA = .023, CFI = .946, TLI = .945). All items passed the tests of no practical impact. In Hy3 a 4-Factor model was selected as best representing the 40 items from this scale not previously analysed in Hs1. In Test 1 the model produced reasonable fit indices (RMSEA .026, CFI = .921, TLI =.915). In Test 2 the decrease in CFI was above the threshold of invariance (RMSEA .043, CFI = .767, TLI =.761). A partial invariance model was defined with the parameters for 20 items freed (RMSEA .026, CFI = .919, TLI =.915). Items 161 and 185 failed the tests of no practical impact. In Sc8 a 5-factor model was selected as best representing the 68 items not previously analysed in Hs1 or Hy3. In Test 1 the model produced reasonable fit indices (RMSEA .015, CFI = .934, TLI = .932). In Test 2 the decrease in CFI was above the threshold of invariance (RMSEA .023, CFI = .838, TLI = .837). A partial invariance model was defined with the parameters for 28 items freed (RMSEA .015, CFI = .932, TLI = .930). Items 17, 92, 190, 278, 281,…
