Hello, I would like to constrain a negative residual variance to be greater than zero in a bifactor exploratory structural equation model. However, when I constrain the variance, I am getting the message that the model may not be identified. Can someone please take a look at my syntax (below) and tell me if my syntax is incorrect? Is it possible to constrain a residual item variance in a bifactor model without running into identification issues?)? Thanks.
