Abstract
Confirmatory factor analyses (CFA) are widely used in the organizational literature. As a result, understanding how to properly conduct these analyses, report the results, and interpret their implications is critically important for advancing organizational research. The goal of this paper is to summarize the complexities of CFA models and, therefore, to provide a resource for journal reviewers and researchers who are using CFA in their research. The topics covered in this paper include the estimation process, power analyses, model fit, and model modifications, among other things. In addition, this paper concludes with a checklist that summarizes the key points that are discussed and can be used to evaluate future studies that incorporate CFA.
期刊介绍：
Organizational Research Methods (ORM) was founded with the aim of introducing pertinent methodological advancements to researchers in organizational sciences. The objective of ORM is to promote the application of current and emerging methodologies to advance both theory and research practices. Articles are expected to be comprehensible to readers with a background consistent with the methodological and statistical training provided in contemporary organizational sciences doctoral programs. The text should be presented in a manner that facilitates accessibility. For instance, highly technical content should be placed in appendices, and authors are encouraged to include example data and computer code when relevant. Additionally, authors should explicitly outline how their contribution has the potential to advance organizational theory and research practice.
