Model Specification Question

Forums

Hello Helpful Forum Members,

My co-authors and I have been very happy with the metaSEM R package, and we're grateful to the authors and contributors for their hard work in developing and maintaining the package.

I've been stuck for a while at a crucial part of "stage 2" of the TSSEM approach, and I'm hoping that someone here can help me make sense of it. Specifically, I'm confused about the syntax used to specify the structural model to be fit to the pooled data derived in stage 1.

Error running analysis after deleting rows from data frame

Forums

Hi Everyone,
Using metaSEM and loving it. But, I've encountered a problem using metaSEM with a data frame after I have deleted rows from that data frame -- or created a new data frame that is a subset of the rows in the original data frame. Fortunately, I've also discovered a work around - but the error is an odd one. I have attached the relevant files, but I'll describe it in detail here.

Error when trying to run my data but not sample data

Forums

Hi Everyone,
Just trying out metaSEM. Analyzing the sample data worked perfectly. Unfortunately, the error below occurs when I try to run meta3 with my data. Note that there are no missing or NA values in my data. Any help in trying to get this to run would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
David
