Abstract
Combining simultaneous equations with latent variables and measurement models results in general latent variable SEMs, the subject of Chapter 6. It covers model specifications, implied moments, identification, estimation, outliers and influential cases, model fit, and respecification in such models. Furthermore, Chapter 6 also explores higher order factor analysis, longitudinal models, and Bayesian estimation.
