The Steps In Performing Second Order CFA

The procedure of performing the second order factor analysis is as follows:

Step 1: Run the CFA for all first order latent sub-constructs (measurement model) 
In this step, the researcher is running CFA for the measurement model of sub-constructs.

Step 2: Run the Second Order CFA for the main construct on its sub-constructs
In this step, the researcher estimate the causal effects from the main construct to all its sub-constructs. The estimation is carried out by linking the main construct to all sub-constructs using a single headed arrow. The objective here is to estimate the factor loading of main construct on its sub-constructs in order to confirm that the theorized second order construct loads into the respective sub-constructs.

CCOMPUTING THE EFFECT SIZES IN A MEDIATION TEST

Supposed we are working with the following model (Figure 1). In this model, the researcher is interested to carry out the following analysis:

1) To determine whether Job Attitude mediates the relationship between Skills & Training and Career Advancement.
2) To measure the effect size for single every path in the model
3) To measure the mediated effect of the mediator in the model

 

Figure 1: The model containing all constructs namely Skill & Training (X), Job Attitude (M), and Career Advancement (Y).

The coefficients and their probability values are summarized in Table 1. As discussed earlier, these values can be used to determine the significance of a mediator in the mediation model.
