Hello,
I am having difficulty resolving an error I receive trying to bootstrap a
multigroup SEM. The error (below) indicates that the model called to
bootSem doesn't contain matrices. This is true, sort of, because I created
a list of two covariance matrices for the model to call. All of this syntax
works fine (a summary of "MAP.mg.sem" will produce parameter estimates,
goodness of fit indices, etc.), however, the bootSem function does not run.
Any ideas on a workaround?
MLM.MAP.Data$IAT.factor <- as.factor(IAT)
IAT.factor <- MLM.MAP.Data$IAT.factor
evaluative.MAP.data <- subset(data.frame(IAT.factor, exp.race,
meditation.experience, years.meditate, repeated.iat, repeated.ERN, age,
acceptance, awareness, FCz.GNG.150.incor, FCz.GNG.150.cor,
FCz.stereo.150.incor, FCz.stereo.150.cor, FCz.eval.150.incor,
FCz.eval.150.cor), IAT==2)
stereotype.MAP.data <- subset(data.frame(IAT.factor, exp.race,
meditation.experience, years.meditate, repeated.iat, repeated.ERN, age,
acceptance, awareness, FCz.GNG.150.incor, FCz.GNG.150.cor,
FCz.stereo.150.incor, FCz.stereo.150.cor, FCz.eval.150.incor,
FCz.eval.150.cor), IAT==1)
MAP.stereotype.cov <- cov(na.omit(stereotype.MAP.data[,-1]))
MAP.evaluative.cov <- cov(na.omit(evaluative.MAP.data[,-1]))
MAP.cov.list <- list(stereotype=MAP.stereotype.cov,
evaluative=MAP.evaluative.cov)
#### Specify your MSEM path model: Years Meditating, ERN, IAT####
MAP.msem.model <- specifyModel()

MAP.mg.mod <- multigroupModel(MAP.msem.model, groups=c("stereotype",
"evaluative"))
MAP.mg.sem <- sem(MAP.mg.mod, MAP.cov.list, c(nrow(stereotype.MAP.data),
nrow(evaluative.MAP.data)), group="IAT.factor")
system.time(bootSem(MAP.mg.sem, R=100, MAP.cov.list))
Error in bootSem.msem(MAP.mg.sem.2, MAP.cov.list, R = 100) :
the model object doesn't contain data matrices
