Is it possible to fit a structural equation model with link functions in R? I am trying to build a logistic-regression-like model in sem, because incorporating the dichotomous variables linearly seems inappropriate. Mplus can do something similar by specifying a 'link' parameter, but I would like to be able to do it in R, ofcourse.
I have explored the 'sem' package from John Fox, but it does not seem to be able to fit non-linear relations. Is there some R-package or way to get this done? I have also considered creating a seperate latent variable in the sem model for the systematic component of the predictors, but then I still need a way to fix a non-linear link from the systematic component to the dichotomous Y variable. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Link-functions-in-SEM-tp18679236p18679236.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
