Alterlab Sem Psychometrics

alterlab-ieu/alterlab-sem-psychometrics

Fits and evaluates measurement models — confirmatory factor analysis, full structural equation models, exploratory factor analysis, item response theory, and multi-group measurement invariance — using the verified Python stack: semopy (model syntax =~ / ~ / ~~, Model.fit, inspect(std_est=True), calc_stats for CFI/TLI/RMSEA), factor_analyzer (EFA, KMO, Bartlett, ConfirmatoryFactorAnalyzer), and pingouin/girth, computing McDonald's omega from standardized loadings and judging fit against Hu & Bentler cutoffs. Use when the request mentions confirmatory factor analysis, structural equation modeling, a latent variable or construct model, factor loadings, IRT, or measurement invariance across groups. For deciding whether a scale is trustworthy at all prefer alterlab-ssci-measurement-gate; for plain regression prefer alterlab-statistical-analysis. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
