Hello,

I am testing second-order factor analysis but for some reason the model fit information does not appear.. Whether or not I fixed the loading of first indicator at 1. Do you have any suggestions? My model looks like the following:

N BY N1 N2 N3 N4 N5 N6;
A BY A1 A2 A3 A4 A5 A6;
E BY E1 E2 E3 E4 E5 E6;
O BY O1 O2 O3 O4 O5 O6;
C BY C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 C6;

ALPHA BY N A C;
BETA BY O E;

Since the model is quite simple, I have no idea why no model fit information is displayed. Please check below. Thanks!!
