Résumé : |
This article summarizes the evolution of the different latent variable measurement models used in Organizational Scholarship. We start by revisiting the traditional models used since the 1980s, then present the most recent findings over the last decade, including the rediscovery of bifactor models and the development of Exploratory Structural Equations Modeling (ESEM). These last two models represent a generalization of the traditional Confirmatory Factor Analysis model (CFA ICM) and demonstrate both a better fit to the data in addition to a better construct validity (convergent, discriminant, predictive). These methods are then illustrated through the operationalization of the “self-perceived employability” construct. The traditional CFA model is significantly less fit to the data than the ESEM models are and display much lower construct validity and reliability. The final result yields a bifactor ESEM model with an overarching general employability factor and ten domain-specific factors, all of which predict that a senior executive job seeker is more likely to feel employable than a professionally active senior executive, except for the professional self-efficacy and competency factors. Some theoretical and empirical biases of the traditional CFA model are then underlined, and managerial as well as academic openings are outlined for future studies. |
