R Packages

CR2: Compute CR0, CR1, CR2 cluster robust standard errors with empirical-degrees of freedom adjustments. (July 2022).

This is now on CRAN so can be installed using: install.packages('CR2'). The development version can also be installed using: devtools::install_github("flh3/CR2").

The SPSS version is available here.

gendata: Generate and modify synthetic datasets. Create synthetic datasets based on a correlation table. Additional functions can be used to rescale, transform, and reverse code variables. DOC

hornpa: A stand-alone function that generates a user specified number of random datasets and computes eigenvalues using the random datasets (i.e., implements Horn’s [1965, Psychometrika] parallel analysis). DOC

Shiny

Testing out Shiny– a web application framework for R.

Conduct a parallel analysis online to determine the number of components/factors to retain. No need to download any syntax files or packages. NOTE: For some reason, the EFA PA is not working properly (but it does in the package).

Conducting multilevel CFA in R

I wrote a short note a while back (which I’ve kept updating) on conducting a multilevel confirmatory factor analysis using R (with lavaan). The note and the directions on using the function can be found using this link. NOTE: the updated version of lavaan now has a feature that automates the cumbersome multilevel setup. Additional notes can be found here.
