Hello, I am still learning how to use Mplus for SEM. I have a data set with data from 192 participants. When I run the model everything seems to work correctly. However, in my output it says that I only have 96 observations, half the amount I should have. Does anyone know what's happening?

You must have more variable names in the NAMES list than you have columns in the data set causing two records to be read instead of one.

Thank you so much! I did have one variable named twice. I fixed that and now the output states the correct number of observations. However, now I am not getting all the fit indices that I was getting before. What do I need to do to get TLI, CFI, RMSEA, and the other standard indices?

I would need to see the output to understand this. Please send it and your license number to support@statmodel.com.

Never mind, I figured out the problem. Thanks!
