OpenMx 2.0: Extended Structural Equation and Statistical Modeling.
The new software package OpenMx 2.0 for structural equation and other statistical modeling is introduced and its features are described. OpenMx is evolving in a modular direction and now allows a mix-and-match computational approach that separates model expectations from fit functions and optimizers. Major backend architectural improvements include a move to swappable open-source optimizers suc...
متن کاملOpenMx: An Open Source Extended Structural Equation Modeling Framework.
OpenMx is free, full-featured, open source, structural equation modeling (SEM) software. OpenMx runs within the R statistical programming environment on Windows, Mac OS-X, and Linux computers. The rationale for developing OpenMx is discussed along with the philosophy behind the user interface. The OpenMx data structures are introduced - these novel structures define the user interface framework...
متن کاملumx: Twin and Path-based Structural Equation Modeling in OpenMx
Structural equation modeling (SEM) is an important research tool, especially in the social sciences. Two major uses of SEM include path-based model specification, where ease of use and graphical and table-based reporting are important for researcher productivity, and complex multi-group and multi-level models developed in fields such as behavior genetics where the model specification might ofte...
متن کاملNonlinear structural equation modeling as a statistical method
Structural equation modeling originated (Jöreskog (1973), Bentler (1980), Bollen (1989)) as a method for modeling linear relations among observed and hypothesized latent variables. Despite limitation inherent in the linearity assumption of traditional structural equation modeling, it has indeed provided a revolutionary and popular framework for addressing research questions in the social, psych...
متن کاملStructural Equation Modeling as a Statistical Method: An Overview
Important attributes in many disciplines cannot be observed directly, and have to be measured by multiple indicators that are subject to errors. Structural equation modeling (SEM) has been a major tool for understanding the relationships between latent attributes and their observed indicators as well as those among latent attributes. This article provides a critical review of the statistical de...
