Testing for Cross-Situational-Consistency: A Confirmatory Factor Analytic Approach
提出用验证性因子分析（CFA）来检验行为在不同情境下是否一致，并用模拟数据演示了该方法的操作和结果，为研究者提供了实用建议。
Numerous procedures have been suggested for investigating behaviors across situations for consistency versus situational specificity. It is proposed here that Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) may provide an useful addition to these procedures. To illustrate the process, a CFA model based on simulated data is presented and tested. The results of this simulation are employed to make recommendations for conducting CFA to test for cross-situational consistency.
