Exploratory Structural Equation Modeling ESEM

A collection of functions developed to support the tutorial on using Exploratory Structural Equiation Modeling (ESEM) (Asparouhov & Muthén, 2009) <https://www.statmodel.com/download/EFACFA810.pdf>) with Longitudinal Study of Australian Children (LSAC) dataset (Mohal et al., 2023) <doi:10.26193/QR4L6Q>. The package uses 'tidyverse','psych', 'lavaan','semPlot' and provides additional functions to conduct ESEM. The package provides general functions to complete ESEM, including esem_c(), creation of target matrix (if it is used) make_target(), generation of the Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) model syntax esem_cfa_syntax(). A sample data is provided - the package includes a sample data of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire of the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children (SDQ LSAC) in sdq_lsac(). 'ESEM' package vignette presents the tutorial demonstrating the use of ESEM on SDQ LSAC data.
