Hello, I am running SEM for multi-group comparison. I have three latent variables, which A,B,and C. In the latent variable C, items are forced choice. In the model, D is a manifest variable with 5 math plausible values. So, the SEM model is A->B->C->D. I want to compare the model with 11 countries.Could you please let me know how to use my SEM model to compare 10 countries ?Because I want to know if there is any differences between countries? Also, because of five plausible values, should I run five times for the model? or there is any way to deal with five plausible values? Thank you |

First you want to study measurement invariance across the countries - see the UG and also our MI web page: http://www.statmodel.com/MeasurementInvariance.shtml Analysis with 5 plausible values uses DATA: Type = Imputation; See also the UG. |

In my model, I have the forced-choice item and I transformed the data to the binary data based on Brow & Maydeu-Olivares's paper (2012). Then, I have to do measurement invariance on the this item. Is it possible to do measurement invariance on the forced-choice item ? |

I am not familiar with that work - you may want to ask on SEMNET. |
