findIndMeanR Documentation

Find indicator total means from factor loading matrix, total factor mean, and indicator intercept.

Description

Find indicator total means from a factor loading matrix, total factor means, and indicator (measurement) intercepts.

Usage

findIndMean(lambda, factorMean = NULL, tau = NULL, kappa = NULL, 
	covmean = NULL)

Arguments

lambda

Factor loading matrix

factorMean

Total (model-implied) mean of factors. As a default, all total factor means are 0.

tau

Indicator (measurement) intercepts. As a default, all intercepts are 0.

kappa

Regression coefficient matrix from covariates (column) to indicators (rows)

covmean

A vector of covariate means.

Value

A vector of indicator total means.
