Hi everyone,
I am conducting a simulation study of a growth model and would like to evaluate the bootstrap CP of it. I kept the simulation replication as 1000 and set bootstrap replication as 1000 and 2000, respectively. The results seemed wiered, since the CPs of bootstrap 1000 (all of them were located between (0.93, 0.97)) were much better than those of bootstrap 2000 (some CPs were quite low, say 0.86). Any advice about this issue? Should I increase the bootstrap replication to a larger number, say 5000? Thank you in advance.
