Description

Computes robust p-values for overall fit and nested comparisons of structural equation models fitted with 'lavaan'. Implements penalized eigenvalue block averaging and penalized regression (Foldnes, Moss, Grønneberg, 2025) <doi:10.1080/10705511.2024.2372028>, including their extension to nested models (Foldnes, Grønneberg, Moss, 2026) <doi:10.3758/s13428-026-02968-4>, alongside familiar corrections such as Satorra-Bentler. Supported settings include complete-data ML, GLS, and ULS, categorical DWLS and ULS, and full-information maximum likelihood with one or several groups.
