calculateWeightsUnit: Calculate composite weights using unit weights

Description

Calculate unit weights for all blocks, i.e., each indicator of a block is equally weighted.

Usage

calculateWeightsUnit(
 .S                 = args_default()$.S,
 .csem_model        = args_default()$.csem_model,
 .starting_values   = args_default()$.starting_values
  )

Value

A named list. J stands for the number of constructs and K for the number of indicators.

$W

A (J x K) matrix of estimated weights.

$E

NULL

$Modes

The mode used. Always "unit".

$Conv_status

NULL as there are no iterations

$Iterations

0 as there are no iterations

Arguments

.S

The (K x K) empirical indicator correlation matrix.

.csem_model

A (possibly incomplete) cSEMModel-list.

.starting_values

A named list of vectors where the list names are the construct names whose indicator weights the user wishes to set. The vectors must be named vectors of "indicator_name" = value pairs, where value is the (scaled or unscaled) starting weight. Defaults to NULL.
