Get data with product indicators for different approaches

get_pi_syntax() is a function for creating the lavaan syntax used for estimating latent interaction models using one of the product indicators in lavaan.

Usage

get_pi_data(model.syntax, data, method = "dblcent", match = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

model.syntax: lavaan syntax
data: data to create product indicators from
method: method to use: "rca" = residual centering approach, "uca" = unconstrained approach, "dblcent" = double centering approach, "pind" = prod ind approach, with no constraints or centering, "custom" = use parameters specified in the function call
match: should the product indicators be created by using the match-strategy
...: arguments passed to other functions (e.g., modsem_pi)

Value

data.frame
