Calculate multilevel omega reliability
Description
This function uses multilevel structural equation modelling to calculate between and within reliability using coefficient omega.
Usage
omegaSEM(items, id, data, savemodel = FALSE)
Arguments
items |
A character vector giving the variables that map to the items in the scale. Note that these should be reverse scored prior to running this function. |
id |
A character string giving the name of the variable that indicates which rows of the dataset belong to the same person or group for the multilevel analysis. |
data |
A data table or data frame to be used for analysis. |
savemodel |
A logical value indicating whether the underlying model
should be saved and returned. Defaults to |
Value
a list with two elements, the first, “Results” contains the
estimates for coefficient omega at the within and between level. The
next element, “Fit” contains the entire fitted model from lavaan, if
savemodel = TRUE
.
