    Suggestion: people who are specifically looking for Measurement Equivalence will find this video useful too!

      Yes, your are right! The video is part of my playlist on measurement invariance:

    Great video!
    Can we test measurement equivalence with more than 2 groups (at the same time) e.g. younger vs. middle-aged vs. older adults? I am asking because so far I have only seen examples with 2 groups.

    • @QuantFish
      @QuantFish  4 місяці тому

      Yes, there can be more than 2 groups.

      Excellent! I am wondering if there is a technique to test measurement equivalence across continuous variables such as age (e.g., ranging from 20 to 80 years old) or if we must create 2 or more groups even with variables that are continuous. @@QuantFish

      @@will74lsn Great question. Continuous variables are somewhat tricky. Age groups (e.g., 20-30, 31-40, 41-50 etc.) would work for the sake of invariance testing to at least screen for non-invariance in different age ranges. (It is likely not necessary to look at every single age separately.)
