fcors.value {MonteCarloSEM}

This function specifies the correlation matrix between the factors.

Description

The user specifies the correlation matrix between the factors. The values entered should be between -1 and +1. The values can be given by column or row but should be given in order. Please see the example for a correlation among three factors. In case there is only one factor following line should be entered "cors.value(nf=1, cors=c(1,1,1))"

Usage

fcors.value(nf, cors)

Arguments

nf

the number of factor/s.

cors

vector of the correlations.

Value

The function returns the factor correlation matrix. This is a symmetric matrix, which shows the correlation values among the factors in the model.
