umxDiagnose {umx}R Documentation

Diagnose problems in a model - this is a work in progress.

Description

The goal of this function WILL BE (not currently functional) to diagnose problems in a model and return suggestions to the user. It is a work in progress, and of no use as yet.

Usage

umxDiagnose(model, tryHard = FALSE, diagonalizeExpCov = FALSE)

Arguments

model

an mxModel() to diagnose

tryHard

whether I should try and fix it? (defaults to FALSE)

diagonalizeExpCov

Whether to diagonalize the ExpCov

Details

Best diagnostics are:

  1. Observed data variances and means

  2. Expected variances and means

  3. Difference of these?

Try * diagonalizeExpCov diagonal * umx_is_ordered()

more tricky - we should really report the variances and the standardized thresholds.

The guidance would be to try starting with unit variances and thresholds that are within +/- 2 SD of the mean. bivariate outliers %p option

	umxPath(var = manifests),
	umxPath(var = "G", fixedAt = 1)
)
