Transformation to Achieve a Longitudinally Stationary Factor Pattern Matrix.

Bieber, Stephen L.; Meredith, William

Psychometrika, v51 n4 p535-47 Dec 1986

Meredith's method of extracting a factorially invariant solution is adapted to longitudinal settings. An explorational estimation procedure is presented which attempts to identify the longitudinal factor components of an across occasion variance-covariance matrix. Data from 166 subjects on the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale is used to illustrate the method. (Author/BS)
