#statstab #129 Structural Models (EFA, CFA, SEM, ...) w/ {parameters}

Thoughts: Lots of debate about #EFA vs #CFA; very confusing. Once I figure out what to use, this #R package seems to have lots of functionality.

#statstab #408 Factor analysis: Overrated, Misused, But Still Useful

Thoughts: Some scholars favour CFA over EFA, but this post reverses that perspective. Do you agree?

I have been following and used #JASP on and off over the years and I liked it a lot.

This tutorial makes it really interesting!
