Arguments
fit.edge |
Output from mvregmed.edges |
fit.mvregmed |
A mvregmed object, either from mvregmed.fit or from mvregmed.grid.bestfit |
Details
Loop through all relationships determined important from mrregmed edges object, and create model statement for lavaan, while also specifying covariances pre-estimated by mvregmed.
