28. Stage 2: Developing the Overall Measurement Model Developing the Overall Measurement Model … In standard CFA applications testing a measurement theory, within and between error covariance terms should be fixed at zero and not estimated. In standard CFA applications testing a measurement theory, all measured variables should be free to load only on one construct. Latent constructs should be indicated by at least three measured variables, preferably four or more. In other words, latent factors should be statistically identified.

29. Stage 3: Designing a Study to Produce Empirical Results The ‘scale’ of a latent construct can be set by either: Fixing one loading and setting its value to 1, or Fixing the construct variance and setting its value to 1. Congeneric, reflective measurement models in which all constructs have at least three item indicators are statistically identified in models with two or more constructs. The researcher should check for errors in the specification of the measurement model when identification problems are indicated. Models with large samples (more than 300) that adhere to the three indicator rule generally do not produce Heywood cases.

30. Stage 4: Assessing Measurement Model Validity Assessing fit – GOF indices and path estimates (significance and size) Construct validity Diagnosing problems Standardized residuals Modification indices (MI) Specification searches

31. Stage 4: Assessing Measurement Model Validity Loading estimates can be statistically significant but still be too low to qualify as a good item (standardized loadings below |.5|). In CFA, items with low loadings become candidates for deletion. Completely standardized loadings above +1.0 or below -1.0 are out of the feasible range and can be an important indicator of some problem with the data. Typically, standardized residuals less than |2.5| do not suggest a problem. Standardized residuals greater than |4.0| suggest a potentially unacceptable degree of error that may call for the deletion of an offending item. Standardized residuals between |2.5| and |4.0| deserve some attention, but may not suggest any changes to the model if no other problems are associated with those items.

32. Stage 4: Assessing Measurement Model Validity The researcher should use the modification indices only as a guideline for model improvements of those relationships that can theoretically be justified. CFA results suggesting more than minor modification should be re- evaluated with a new data set (e.g., if more than 20% of the measured variables are deleted, then the modifications can not be considered minor).
