Abstract
En 中文
Despite the widespread and rising popularity of structural equation modeling (SEM) in psychology, there is still much confusion surrounding how to choose an appropriate sample size for SEM. Currently available guidance primarily consists of sample-size rules of thumb that are not backed up by research and power analyses for detecting model misspecification. Missing from most current practices is power analysis for detecting a target effect (e.g., a regression coefficient between latent variables). In this article, we (a) distinguish power to detect model misspecification from power to detect a target effect, (b) report the results of a simulation study on power to detect a target regression coefficient in a three-predictor latent regression model, and (c) introduce a user-friendly Shiny app, pwrSEM, for conducting power analysis for detecting target effects in structural equation models.
