How to Scale Your Latent Variables

There are some heuristics that we might use to try to figure out whether or not a confirmatory factor model is identified. We can go ahead and shrug, make some co-variances, single-headed arrows, where one factor predicts another factor. And then it's kind of neat because the heuristics just generalize. So Boland talks about you can first identify the latent variable structure by two indicator rule,. Then using path analysis rules, you can identify the structure. If the measurement is identified and the structure is identified, coolio.
