Abstract

Because there is little guidance for substantive researchers, the paper reviews the techniques for detecting latent variable interactions and quadratics. After examining plausible research situations where including these nonlinear variables might be appropriate, the paper describes the available detection techniques. Recent advances in nonlinear structural equation analysis are given particular attention, and suggestions for substantive researchers are made.
