The family social relations model (SRM) is applied to identify the sources of variance in interpersonal dispositions families, but antecedents or consequences those are rarely investigated. Simultaneous modeling SRM with using structural equation (SEM) allows do so, may become computationally prohibitive small samples. We therefore consider two factor score regression (FSR) methods: and Bartlett FSR. Based on full information maximum likelihood (FIML), we derive closed-form expressions for...
