Hi,

I am trying to compute an autoregressive model incorporating fixed effects and reciprocal paths between time dynamic components of two variables.
I runned the model for three-waves data, but the model with two-waves data returned an error message (degrees of freedom negative, model not identified).
I wonder whether it was possible to compute such a model with only two waves?
The model is:

X BY x1@1 x2@1;
Y BY y1@1 y2@1;
X WITH Y;
x2 ON x1;
y2 ON y1;
x1 WITH y1;
y2 ON x2;
x2 ON y2;

Thank you,
Stéphanie

This model is not identified with two time points.

This is the answer I expected. Thank you.
