Different covairances in Mplus and SPSS? |

Good evening, I'm not quite sure where to post my question, because it is rather a basic thing. Before I process my LPA, I wanted to check if the data import worked out. I did the basic analysis, combined with the syntax order "listwise = on". Compared to the results I get in SPSS I have a similar number of cases, exactly the same means and exactly the same correlations as well. What confuses me: The covariances differ in both outputs (only in the second decimal place, but in my opinion, it is not possible). Do you know what I could have done wrong? Does Mplus calculate the covariances with a different formula than SPSS? Thank you in advance for your help! |
