I am using rucm package, I have a ucm class object called multivar_ucm. When I just type multivar_ucm in r console and hit enter I get the beta estimates of all exogenous variables along with standard error and p values printed in the r console.

I could get the beta coefficients by using as.data.frame(multivar_ucm$est) and write it in a csv file. Looking for a similar approach to export the respective p values as well.

Unfortunately the package does not expose the object’s p-value (this is somewhat of an oversight). The print.ucm method recomputes the value every time. If you want to get the object’s p-value, you’ll need to do the same:

t_value = x$est / attr(x, "se")
p_value = 2 * pt(-abs(t_value), df = attr(x, "df"))

(Code cleaned up slightly.)
