Arguments

taudotprime

Numeric. Standardized slope of path from x to y \(\left( \dot{\tau}^{\prime} \right)\).

betaprime

Numeric. Standardized slope of path from m to y \(\left( \beta^{\prime} \right)\) .

alphaprime

Numeric. Standardized slope of path from x to m \(\left( \alpha^{\prime} \right)\) .

lambdax

Numeric. Factor loading xlatent ~ x \( \left( \lambda_x \right)\) . Numerically equivalent to the standard deviation of x.

lambdam

Numeric. Factor loading mlatent ~ m \( \left( \lambda_m \right)\) . Numerically equivalent to the standard deviation of m.

lambday

Numeric. Factor loading ylatent ~ y \( \left( \lambda_y \right)\) . Numerically equivalent to the standard deviation of y.

sigma2epsilonm

Numeric. Error variance of \(\varepsilon_{m_{latent_{i}}}\) \(\left( \sigma_{\varepsilon_{m_{latent}}}^{2} \right)\).

sigma2epsilony

Numeric. Error variance of \(\varepsilon_{y_{latent_{i}}}\) \(\left( \sigma_{\varepsilon_{y_{latent}}}^{2} \right)\).
