Calculate the Goodness of Fit (GoF) proposed by Tenenhaus et al. (2004) . Note that, contrary to what the name suggests, the GoF is not a measure of model fit in the sense of SEM. See e.g. Henseler and Sarstedt (2012) for a discussion.
calculateGoF(
.object = NULL
)An R object of class cSEMResults resulting from a call to csem().
A single numeric value.
The GoF is inherently tied to the common factor model. It is therefore unclear how to meaningfully interpret the GoF in the context of a model that contains constructs modeled as composites.
