Analyze a Latent Heywood Case
A local animal shelter has designed a survey to measure the impact of their Adopt Me program. Viewers rated each dog's picture, background story, and other characteristics to indicate the "adoptableness" of each animal.
The adoptsurvey
data contains the six items they rated including pictures
, background
, loveskids
that measure a "good story" latent variable, while energy
, wagstail
, playful
measure an "in person" latent variable. You will build a two-factor model of their survey and examine it for Heywood cases. The lavaan
library has been loaded for you.
