The package helps users examine item performance, dimensionality, measurement models, reliability, convergent and discriminant evidence, measurement invariance, and theory-specified nomological networks in the sense of Cronbach and Meehl (1955) . Methods are documented from historical to contemporary practice with literature references, and simulated teaching datasets with known population models accompany the examples. Following calls for transparent measurement practice such as Flake, Pek, and Hehman (2017) , it emphasizes transparent diagnostics, reproducible decision logging, and teaching-oriented guidance rather than automatic item deletion or binary declarations that a measure is valid. authors: - family-names: Uhalt given-names: Joshua email: Josh.Uhalt@gmail.com preferred-citation: type: manual title: 'nomologR: Guided Scale Development and Construct Validation' authors: - family-names: Uhalt given-names: Joshua email: Josh.Uhalt@gmail.com year: '2026' notes: R package version 0.9.0 url: https://github.com/JUhalt/nomologR repository: https://juhalt.r-universe.dev repository-code: https://github.com/JUhalt/nomologR commit: b72bc6d98933083151cabf9b0b30619307afc8d1 url: https://juhalt.github.io/nomologR/ date-released: '2026-09-28' contact: - family-names: Uhalt given-names: Joshua email: Josh.Uhalt@gmail.com
