Hello,

is it possible in MPlus to regress a covariate in a MIMIC Model just for one Group?

I compare students in Germany and Korea in their economic knowledge. My covariate is the prior economic knowledge. It is a binary variable.

In Germany the variable differs between 0 and 1 but in Korea it is only 0. So there is no variance in Korea. I want to regress the prior economic knowledge only for Germany and compare this to Korea.

Can somebody help me?

Thanks!

You can analyze it as 3 groups: Germany with econ=0, Germany with econ=1, and Korea.
