Comparative Performance of Estimation Maximization Among Residual Estimators: A Structural Equation Modelling Perspective

As the concept of methodology has advanced, varied methods estimating residuals have been developed including regression method, Bartlett’s method and Anderson-Rubin’s method. The study utilized estimation maximization approach together with other under structural equation model. results showed that strength existing in modelling are weaknesses vice versa. It was, therefore, found from comparative model fit information based gave better residual parameter estimates compared to Regression Anderson Rubin methods. However, than three methods; Regression,
