I am running a SEM where I have 4 binary indicators measuring an underlying
continuous latent variable at each of 5 waves. The same indicators are used
to measure the latent variable at each wave, where measurement invariance is
applied. The time-dependent latent variables are connected via an AR1
structure.

I used both WLSMV and Bayes estimators to run this model but I found that
there are discrepancies in the results. I wonder what is causing these
discrepancies?

Thank you,
Mai.

It could be due to missing data handling if you have a lot of missing data. Please send the two outputs and your license number to support@statmodel.com.
