Effects of Employing Ridge Regression in Structural Equation Models.
McQuitty, Shaun
Structural Equation Modeling, v4 n3 p244-52 1997
LISREL 8 invokes a ridge option when maximum likelihood or generalized least squares are used to estimate a structural equation model with a nonpositive definite covariance or correlation matrix. Implications of the ridge option for model fit, parameter estimates, and standard errors are explored through two examples. (SLD)
