Greetings,
I have run a random-effects TSSEM (tssem2()) in metaSEM and received the estimated path loadings and correlations among factors in the output for my structural model. I also need to find the R2 values for my endogenous variables in my structural model. I was wondering how I can determine R2 values. I think they should be calculated as 1-var of the endogenous variables found in impliedS1 matrix in mx.fit component of the tssem2() output:
random2<-tssem2(...)
random2$mx.fit$impliedS1
[,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8]
[1,] 1.00000000 -0.2124499 -0.37657180 -0.1408749 0.1566710 0.03624335 -0.16619094 -0.06419929
[2,] -0.21244990 0.4783484 0.57574642 0.4799511 0.5499434 0.44504316 0.53299814 0.14718394

Then, for example,
R2 for [,2]= 1- 0.4783484= 0.5216516.
Am I right?
I appreciate any help,
Thank you,
