3. Which three paths have the highest absolute standardized regression weights?
4. Interpret the association between Tender Heartedness and Animal Research and
specify the proportion of the variance in Animal Research that is explained by
Tender Heartedness?
5. Which of the indicators for Tender Heartedness has the highest reliability?
6. What is the relationship between the estimated reliabilities and the standardized
weights of the paths leading to the indicators from the latent variables?
7. Does the GFI indicate that the model fits the data well?
8. Does the RMSEA indicate that the model fits the data well?
9. You know that the Chi-square test will be significant even when the fit is good if
you have a sufficiently large sample. How large would the sample need be here
for the Chi-square to be significant at the .05 level?
Rather than using the diagram created by Amos, I would like you to use a
diagram I drew in PowerPoint. Open it in PowerPoint Click on each vari (in a text
box) and replace vari with the estimated variance of the error or disturbance. Click on
each .rr and enter the estimated reliability of the indicator variable. Click on each sw
and enter the estimated standardized weight. After you have finished entering the
parameter estimates and reliabilities, File, Save as, and select a graphics format (png,
jpg, or gif). Then open your Word doc and Insert, Picture the diagram into the Word
document below your answers to the eight questions posed above.
Print the Word document and bring it to me in class on Wednesday the 18 th of
November, 2009.
