Get data with product indicators for different approaches

Description

model.syntax

lavaan syntax

data

data to create product indicators from

method

data.frame

Examples

library(modsem)
library(lavaan)
m1 <- '
  # Outer Model
  X =~ x1 + x2 +x3
  Y =~ y1 + y2 + y3
  Z =~ z1 + z2 + z3
  
  # Inner model
  Y ~ X + Z + X:Z 
'
syntax <- get_pi_syntax(m1)
data <- get_pi_data(m1, oneInt)
est <- sem(syntax, data)
