Examples: MONTE CARLO SIMULATION Studies 465 CHAPTER 12 EXAMPLES: MONTE CARLO SIMULATION STUDIES MONTE CARLO SIMULATION studies are often used for methodological investigations of the performance of statistical estimators under various conditions. They can also be used to decide on the sample size needed for a study and to determine power (Muth n & Muth n, 2002). MONTE CARLO studies are sometimes referred to as SIMULATION studies. Mplus has extensive MONTE CARLO SIMULATION facilities for both data generation and data analysis. Several types of data can be generated: simple random samples, clustered (multilevel) data, missing data, and data from populations that are observed (multiple groups) or unobserved (latent classes). Data generation models can include random effects, interactions between continuous latent variables, interactions between continuous latent variables and observed variables, and between categorical latent variables.
analyzed using external Monte Carlo. CHAPTER 12 470 MONTE CARLO OUTPUT The default output for the MONTECARLO command includes a listing of the input setup, a summary of the analysis specifications, sample statistics from the first replication, the analysis results summarized over replications, and TECH1 which shows the free parameters in the ...
