Abstract: In APIM, four patterns can be examined using parameter k, which is the ratio of partner effect to actor effect (p/a). It can be tested by including a phantom variable in a model and inspecting whether the bootstrapping confidence interval for the k parameter includes 1, 0, or -1. This study aims to examine the performance of the bias-corrected (BC) bootstrap CI for the parameter k method under the various conditions of sample sizes and k ratios. Results revealed that the CI of k was more stable as the sample size increased. Even when the true k ratios somewhat deviated from the values of specific patterns (-1, 0, and 1), more than 80% of the CIs included those, respectively.
