Description: Implements the Exploratory Graph Analysis (EGA) framework
        for dimensionality and psychometric assessment. EGA estimates
        the number of dimensions in psychological data using network
        estimation methods and community detection algorithms. A
        bootstrap method is provided to assess the stability of
        dimensions and items. Fit is evaluated using the Entropy Fit
        family of indices. Unique Variable Analysis evaluates the
        extent to which items are locally dependent (or redundant).
        Network loadings provide similar information to factor loadings
        and can be used to compute network scores. A bootstrap and
        permutation approach are available to assess configural and
        metric invariance. Hierarchical structures can be detected
        using Hierarchical EGA. Time series and intensive longitudinal
        data can be analyzed using Dynamic EGA, supporting individual,
        group, and population level assessments.
