Examining the Relationship Between Mathematics-Specific Language and Mathematical Abilities in Children: A Three-Level Meta-Analysis
Evaluating Model Predictive Performance in Confirmatory Factor Analysis with Binary Outcomes Using the InterModel Vigorish
Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) has been widely used to assess the fit of theoretical measurement models to observed data. We introduce the InterModel Vigorish (IMV) to the field; a predictive fit index that offers novel perspectives for model comparison. The IMV complements traditional fit indices by offering additional information to support model evaluation, with a particular emphasis on a model's generalizability to the hold-out data. It a…
Bayesian Growth Curve Modeling with Measurement Error in Time
Growth curve modeling has been widely used in many disciplines to understand the trajectories of growth. Two popular forms utilized in the real-world analyses are the linear and quadratic growth curve models. These models operate on the assumption that measurements are conducted exactly at pre-set time or intervals. In essence, the reliability of these models is deeply tied to the punctuality and consistency of the data collection process. Howeve…

This study aimed to investigate whether offline and online social support mediate the relationship between negative life events (NLEs) and suicidal ideation among Chinese students during the COVID-19 pandemic, with a focus on gender differences. Using stratified sampling, 1,800 middle-high school and university students across China were surveyed. Structural equation modeling (SEM) with bias-corrected bootstrapping (5,000 samples) tested mediatio…
Temperament, Parenting, and Trajectories of Anxious and Regulated Shyness in Chinese Children: A 4‐Year Longitudinal Study
Anxious shyness refers to social inhibition and wariness toward familiar peers or authority figures, possibly due to concerns about negative social evaluation. In contrast, regulated shyness is characterized by nonassertive, unassuming, and polite behavior, particularly in conspicuous and potentially conflictual situations. This 4‐year longitudinal study examined the trajectories of anxious and regulated shyness from first (T1) to fourth grade (T…

This paper explores the utilisation of Bayesian structural equation modelling (BSEM) in psychology, highlighting its advantages over frequentist methods for handling complex models and small sample sizes. Basic concepts and fundamental issues relevant to BSEM are introduced, such as prior setting, model convergence, and model fit evaluation and so on. The paper also provides illustrative examples of commonly employed BSEMs, including confirmatory…
The impact of perceived life stress and online social support on university students’ mental health during the post-Covid era in Northwestern China: Gender-specific analysis
Our study findings unveiled two significant aspects: Firstly, the impact of perceived life stress on the mental health of students was identified as a risk factor. Secondly, the role of online social support emerged as a protective factor, particularly in the post-pandemic context. Additionally, gender-specific patterns were observed in these relationships
Trajectories of temperamental shyness and attention shifting in Chinese children and their relations to psychosocial adjustment at entry to elementary school
This study examined the relations between trajectories of temperamental shyness and attention shifting in Chinese children, the heterogeneity in these trajectories, and how psychosocial adjustment at entry to elementary school varied depending on different trajectories. The participants of 2009 and 2010 cohorts ( N = 268, 51% male; M age = 3.68 years at T1) were recruited from Yinchuan , China. On average, temperamental shyness declined and atten…
The Influence of Using Inaccurate Priors on Bayesian Multilevel Estimation
Researchers in psychology, education, and organizational behavior often encounter multilevel data with hierarchical structures. Bayesian approach is usually more advantageous than traditional frequentist-based approach in small sample sizes, but it is also more susceptible to the subjective specification of priors. To investigate the potentially detrimental effects of inaccurate prior information on Bayesian approach and compare its performance w…
How school principals’ motivating style stimulates teachers’ job crafting: A self-determination theory approach
Mother phubbing and harsh mothering: Mothers' irritability and adolescents' gender as moderators
BACKGROUND: While extant evidence supports the link between mother phubbing (Mphubbing) and harsh mothering, the current understanding of factors that may affect this relationship is limited. METHODS: Hierarchical regression analyses were conducted to examine the relation between Mphubbing and harsh mothering, as well as to explore whether mothers' irritability and adolescents' gender would moderate this relationship. The participants included 48…
Various Types of Negative Life Events Among Youth Predict Suicidal Ideation: A Cross-Sectional Study Based on Gender Perspective
We sought to investigate potential gender differences in various types of negative life events and suicidal ideation among Chinese high school and university students, as well as to analyze the interrelations between different types of negative life events and suicidal ideation among these young students. Participants were 2,018 high school and university students from northwestern China, who completed a demographics questionnaire and self-report…
Evaluation and Comparison of SEM, Esem, and BSEM in Estimating Structural Models with Potentially Unknown Cross-loadings
Cross-loadings are common in multidimensional instruments; however, they cannot be appropriately addressed in conventional structural equation modeling (SEM) owing to the assumption of zero cross-loadings in standard confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Although it has been proposed that exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) and Bayesian structural equation modeling (BSEM) can address this issue more flexibly, their performance in struct…
The Relationship Between Sleep Quality and Risk-Taking Behaviors in Emerging Adults: The Mediating Role of Resilience and Gender Difference
Previous studies have shown that sleep quality is associated with risk-taking behaviors, but the psychological mechanism of this relationship is unclear among emerging adults at university. In the present study, we examined the relationship among sleep quality, resilience, and risk-taking behaviors in college students. A sample of 1221 college students (50.4% females, M age = 22.58, SD = 1.28) was enrolled in our survey. The Pittsburgh sleep qual…
Longitudinal Associations between Teacher-Student Relationships and Prosocial Behavior in Adolescence: The Mediating Role of Basic Need Satisfaction
The quality of teacher-student relationships has been shown to relate to adolescents' prosocial behavior, but the motivational mechanisms underlying this association remained unclear. Based on relationships motivation theory (RMT), we examined whether the associations between teacher-student relationships (closeness and conflict) and prosocial behavior are bidirectional, and the mediating role of basic psychological need satisfaction (autonomy, c…
Blcfa: An R Package for Bayesian Model Modification in Confirmatory Factor Analysis
In confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), post hoc model modification (PMM) indexes are often used to adjust for possible residual correlations between items. Although the approach is useful for improving model goodness-of-fit, it requires an iterative, one-item-pair-at-a-time procedure that can be tedious and prone to error. This paper provides a didactic discussion in the form of a tutorial of a more efficient and practical alternative and its imp…
Criteria for Parameter Identification in Bayesian Lasso Methods for Covariance Analysis: Comparing Rules for Thresholding, p -value, and Credible Interval
The lasso is a commonly used regularization method that is increasing used in structural equation models (SEMs). Under the Bayesian framework, lasso is rendered more flexible and readily produces estimates of standard errors and the penalty parameter. However, in practice, it remains unclear what decision rule is appropriate for parameter identification; in other words, determining what size estimate is large enough to be included into the model.…
