Parceling in Structural Equation Modeling : A Comprehensive Introduction for Developmental Scientists, Paperback / softback Book

Parceling in Structural Equation Modeling : A Comprehensive Introduction for Developmental Scientists Paperback / softback

Part of the Elements in Research Methods for Developmental Science series

Paperback / softback

Description

Parceling is pre-modeling strategy to create fewer and more reliable indicators of constructs for use with latent variable models.

Parceling is particularly useful for developmental scientists because longitudinal models can become quite complex and even intractable when measurement models of items are fit.

In this Element the authors provide a detailed account of the advantages of using parcels, their potential pitfalls, as well as the techniques for creating them for conducting latent variable structural equation modeling (SEM) in the context of the developmental sciences.

They finish with a review of the recent use of parcels in developmental journals.

Although they focus on developmental applications of parceling, parceling is also highly applicable to any discipline that uses latent variable SEM.
