Once again, and reassuringly, all of the previously-established factor structures
(i.e. the indicator variables and therefore the identity of the factors) remain the
same as in previous models. This provides evidence that the factor identities are
robust to the addition of additional covariates in the model and that future
validations of the models are likely to successfully measure the factors using the
combinations of indicator variables develop here.
The structural model (SEM 4:1) is estimated using the intra-factor specification
described in Table 7 - 23 and the structural specification illustrated in Figure 7 - 17.
