Power Analysis for Parameter Estimation in Structural Equation Modeling
Despite the widespread and rising popularity of structural equation modeling (SEM) in psychology, there is still much confusion surrounding how to choose an appropriate sample size for SEM. Currently available guidance primarily consists of sample-size rules of thumb that are not backed up by research and power analyses for detecting model misspecification. Missing from most current practices is power analysis for detecting a target effect (e.g.,…
Evaluations of empathizers depend on the target of empathy
Psychological research on empathy typically focuses on understanding its effects on empathizers and empathic targets. Little is known, however, about the effects of empathy beyond its dyadic context. Taking an extradyadic perspective, we examined how third-party observers evaluate empathizers. Seven experiments documented that observers' evaluations of empathizers depend on the target of empathy. Empathizers (vs. nonempathizers) of a stressful ex…
Solutions to the problems of incremental validity testing in relationship science
Incremental validity testing (i.e., testing whether a focal predictor is associated with an outcome above and beyond a covariate) is common (e.g., 57% of Personal Relationships articles in 2017), yet it is fraught with conceptual and statistical problems. First, researchers often use it to overemphasize the novelty or counterintuitiveness of findings, which hinders cumulative understanding. Second, incremental validity testing requires that the f…
