2、L 基于协方差矩阵PLS(Partial Least Square)基于主成份SEM(LISREL;PLS):第二代数据分析技术Bagozzi and Fornell,1982PAGE4STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELINGSEM2.1 协方差结构协方差结构观测变量(y,x)的协方差矩阵为一般结构S(q),所以也叫协方差结构分析。PAGE5STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELINGSEM2.2 模型的识别模型的识别定义定义:如果S(q1)=S(q2)必有 q1=q2,则称结构方程模型为可识别可识别的(identified).考虑方程S(q)S,如果方程数小于参数个数,则
3、必有参数不能由已知量表示出来,此时模型为不可识别不可识别的(under identified).(S是p维矩阵,方程个数有多少个?)PAGE6STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELING如果一个参数不能不能由已知量表示出来,则称该参数是不可识别的不可识别的(under identified);如果一个参数能且只能能且只能由已知量的一个表达式表示,则称该参数是恰好识别的恰好识别的(just identified);如果一个参数可以由已知量的两个以上两个以上表达式表示,则称该参数是超识别的超识别的(over identified);如果至少有一个参数是超识别的,则模型是超识别的;如果至少有
4、一个参数是不可识别的,则模型是不可识别的。PAGE7STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELINGSEM因子模型识别法则因子模型识别法则PAGE8STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELINGSEM2.3、参数估计、参数估计目的:目的:总体协方差矩阵S(q)与样本协方差矩阵S尽可能接近接近。拟合函数(fit function)F(S,S(q)1)非负;2)连续;3)F(S,S(q)0当且仅当S(q)=S。估计:估计:找出 使得拟合函数取得最小值。PAGE9STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELING1、极大似然估计、极大似然估计(Maximum Likelihood,ML)
5、假设观测误差是多元正态分布,则拟合函数为基本性质:基本性质:1)ML估计是渐近无偏的(asymptotically unbiased)2)ML估计是一致估计(consistent);3)ML估计是渐近有效的(asymptotically efficient);4)ML估计是渐近正态分布:PAGE10STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELING5)ML估计的最优拟合值渐近卡方分布,即其中p*=p(p+1)/2,t为自由参数的个数。这个结果可以用于整个模型的检验。H0:S=S(q)。证明可参看(Bollen,1989)PAGE11STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELING2、未加
6、权最小二乘估计、未加权最小二乘估计(unweighted Least Squares,ULS)(意义:残差矩阵S-S(q)全部元素的平方和)ULS估计是一致估计,但是不是渐近有效的;没有尺度不变性;ULS估计的最优拟合值不是渐近卡方分布。PAGE12STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELING3、广义最小二乘估计、广义最小二乘估计(Generalized Least Squares,GLS)(意义:残差矩阵S-S(q)全部元素的加权平方和,其权重为样本协方差矩阵的逆矩阵)可以证明:当误差假设为正态分布时,GLS估计与ML估计是渐近等价的。因此,GLS估计具有ML估计一样的渐近性质。PA
7、GE13STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELING4、广义加权最小二乘估计、广义加权最小二乘估计(Generally weighted Least Squares,WLS)其中:s为由样本协方差矩阵S的所有下半对角元素组成的向量,称为“拉直”向量,记为s=Vecs(S)=(s11,s21,s22,s31,s32,s33,spp)s=Vecs(S)=(s11,s21,s22,s31,s32,s33,spp)W为p*维正定矩阵,p*=p(p+1)/2。PAGE14STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELING特别,1)取 W=SS,:Kronecker 乘积,则WLS 估计化为GL
8、S;2)取 W=S(qML)S(qML),则WLS 估计化为ML;一般,Browne(1982,1984)建议W取wgh,ij=mghij sghsij其中wghij是4阶样本中心矩。这是一种渐近与分布无关的估计(asymptotically distribution-free,ADF),具有许多与ML估计相同的渐近性质。PAGE15STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELINGSEM2.4、模型评价、模型评价目的:评价模型拟合的好坏。方法:拟合指数,对模型进行整体评价;测定系数,评价模型对数据的解释能力;参数检验,评价参数的显著性。PAGE16STRUCTURALEQUATIONMOD
9、ELINGSEM2.4.1 拟合指数拟合指数拟合指数,也叫拟合优度统计量(Goodness-of-fit statistics),反映模型拟合好坏。1、Chi-Square(c2)2、Goodness-of-fit index(GFI)3、Adjusted Goodness-of-fit index(AGFI)4、Root mean square error of approximation(RMSEA)5、Standardized Root mean square residual(RMR)PAGE17STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELING1、Chi-Square(c2)c2(
10、n-1)F()。已经证明,对ML,GLS和 WLS估计,在一定条件下,渐近趋向于c2分布,自由度为(p*-t),p*=p(p+1)/2,t为自由参数的个数。判断:判断:c2越小,说明拟合越好。当卡方检验显著时(p-值0.1),模型拟合不好;如果不显著,模型可以接受。注1:对ML和GLS,数据输入为样本协方差时,c2正确;如果是相关系数矩阵,则只有模型具有度量不变性(scale-invariant)才能给出正确的c2值。对WLS,还需给出正确的权阵W才可以。PAGE18STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELING2、Goodness-of-fit indices(GFI)Adjusted
11、 Goodness-of-fit index(AGFI)拟合优度指数 Joreskog&Sorbom(1981)给出:其中p*=p(p+1)/2,d为模型的自由度。一般认为GFI大于0.9时,拟合良好。PAGE19STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELING3、Root mean square error of approximation(RMSEA)近似误差均方根(Steiger&Lind,1980)其中df 是卡方的自由度。c2-df 称为离中参数(Noncentrality parameter,NCP;Steiger,1980)。总体差距函数(Population Discrep
12、ancy Function,PDF):PAGE20STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELING4、Standardized Root mean square residual(SRMR)标准化残差均方根注1:其他拟合指数参看侯杰泰(2004)注2:以上指数仅反映整个模型的拟合程度。整个模型拟合很好,不表示每个关系符合得也很好。PAGE21STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELINGSEM2.4.2 测定系数测定系数类似于回归分析中的R2(Coefficient of Determinant)1)第i个方程的测定系数:其中 是第i个方程的残差的方差的估计值,是第i个变量的样本方差
13、。方程的测定系数用于评价第i个方程对数据的解释能力。PAGE22STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELING2)整个模型的测定系数其中|Y|是Y的行列式,|S|是S的行列式。计算时Y一般用的估计值,S用拟合的协方差矩阵或者样本协方差矩阵代替。测定系数在01之间,越大越好。测定系数与方程个数有关,因此,建议用于评价方程,评价总体模型还是拟合指数为优。PAGE23STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELING模型修正指数模型修正指数(Modification Index,MI):通过对自由参数增加、减少、变动,引起的卡方的改变量。在LISREL中通过MI命令,每个固定参数都会给出一个
14、修正指数,它等于当该参数设为自由参数时所减少的卡方值。PAGE24STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELINGSEM由于每个参数都会给出标准误(standard error),因此可以对参数进行显著性检验。也就是检验参数是否为零参数是否为零。比如,检验结果两个潜在变量之间的系数不显著,就应该固定该参数为零,然后修正模型并重新估计。2.4.3 参数检验参数检验PAGE25STRUCTURALEQUATIONMODELINGSEM3、模型的另一种估计方法:模型的另一种估计方法:PLS(Partial Least Square)PLS,thesecondmajorSEMtechnique,i
