q2 i? Simulation studies were conducted to examine trifactor model performance under a range of sample sizes and model specifications, comparing model fit, bias, and convergence rates. → James Soland 2021

q2 · i? · design · r?

The article's abstract describes its simulation design: performance of the trifactor model is examined under varying sample sizes and model specifications, then "model fit, bias, and convergence rates" are compared. Only the abstract was available; specific simulation results were not printed on the page.
