Exploratory Analysis
Obtaining Optional Output
The variances and covariances among the observed variables can be estimated under
the assumption that Model C is correct.
E From the menus, choose View > Analysis Properties.
E In the Analysis Properties dialog box, click the Output tab.
E Select Implied moments (a check mark appears next to it).
E To obtain the implied variances and covariances for all the variables in the model
except error variables, select All implied moments.
For Model C, selecting
All implied moments gives the following output:
The implied variances and covariances for the observed variables are not the same as
the sample variances and covariances. As estimates of the corresponding population
values, the implied variances and covariances are superior to the sample variances and
covariances (assuming that Model C is correct).
If you enable both the
Standardized estimates and All implied moments check boxes
in the Analysis Properties dialog box, Amos will give you the implied correlation
matrix of all variables as well as the implied covariance matrix.
