Li, Jian; Lomax, Richard G. – Journal of Experimental Education, 2017
Using Monte Carlo simulations, this research examined the performance of four missing data methods in SEM under different multivariate distributional conditions. The effects of four independent variables (sample size, missing proportion, distribution shape, and factor loading magnitude) were investigated on six outcome variables: convergence rate,…

Alario-Hoyos, Carlos; Pérez-Sanagustin, Mar; Delgado-Kloos, Carlos; Parada G., Hugo A.; Muñoz-Organero, Mario – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2014
This paper presents an in-depth empirical analysis of a nine-week MOOC. This analysis provides novel results regarding participants' profiles and use of built-in and external social tools. The results served to detect seven participants' patterns and conclude that the forum was the social tool preferred to contribute to the MOOC.

Pornchanok Ruengvirayudh – ProQuest LLC, 2018
Determining the number of dimensions underlying many variables in the data or many items in the test is a crucial process prior to performing exploratory factor analysis. Failure to do so leads to serious consequences concerning construct validity. Parallel analysis (PA) has been found to be useful to determine the number of dimensions (i.e.,…
