Conceptual model for estimating true stability in structural equation modeling ( SEM ). The model estimates the regression term rSEMbetween T1 latent scale and T2 latent scale based on the observed scores for scale items 1 to n at T1 and T2 respectively. Each of the eight scales Warmth, Protectiveness and Authoritarianism, Neuroticism, Agreeableness, Openness, Anxiety and Depression were estimated in separate models. The model allowed all item autocorrelations T1-T2, whereas allowing selected correlated item errors within T1 or T2 only when these increased model fit.
