Dear Dr. Muthen,
I modeled and did invariance testing for a CFA with 15 measured variables and 6 latent factors for two groups using the GROUPING option. All worked fine. Now I want to regress these 6 factors on a binary (observed) dependent variable. I used Estimator=MLR since data were non-normal (not missing though). This above SEM ran correctly when I did not specify GROUPING, and gave me odds ratios. But when I try to do SEM for two groups, it gives me this error:
ALGORITHM=INTEGRATION is not available for multiple group analysis. Try using the KNOWNCLASS option for TYPE=MIXTURE.
However, I get even more issues if I try to do the above. Is there a solution for SEM with two groups and a binary observed DV? Something obvious that I'm overlooking? Note that if I don't declare my DV as CATEGORICAL=, it gives me estimates with no problems. However, I'm not sure if this is the way I'm supposed to do it. Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks,
Geetu |

Dear Prof Muthen,
I have tried the following code using KNOWNCLASS: (putting only a part of my code since all won't fit).
I'm now getting this error message:
Invalid value in KNOWNCLASS option: MALE
Please can you help me figure out why this is happening? My outcome is adhered and subgroups are defined by gender.
Many thanks!
Geetanjali
CATEGORICAL = adhered;
KNOWNCLASS = GENDER (1=Male 2=Female);
CLASSES = GENDER (2);
MODEL:
%OVERALL%
f1 BY c56 c57 c58;
f2 BY c44 c45 c47 c49;
f3 BY c48 c50;
f4 BY c51 c55;
f5 BY c43 c46 c52;
f6 BY c61;
adhered ON f1-f6;
ANALYSIS:
ESTIMATOR = MLR;
TYPE = MIXTURE; |

I am running in the same error. I don't think it has to do with the values since a multi group model is working. Could you please provide me with some help?
Kind regards,
Mathias |

| The multi-group language is different from the Knownclass language. For Knownclass, see the V8 UG page 628 with an example on page 110. |
