prob* series with labels for regression paths #88

Closed schoam4 closed 3 years ago

schoam4 commented 3 years ago

The probe* series of functions will provide an error when paths from the predictors to the outcomes use labels. The error message says "Error in varEst[targetcol, targetcol] : subscript out of bounds" The issue is that lavaan uses labels in vcov() instead of full terms for the parameters so when we try to pull the parameters we need those are missed (e.g. line 249). We probably need to pull from the ACM of the model itself (e.g. fit@vcov).

Well, this took a day of productivity. While fixing this, I also found a bug (as opposed to an undocumented limitation in the source code). With multigroup models, it would retrieve the group-2 estimates but still use the group-1 SEs. Both issues are now resolved in 0.5-4.910
