Hi Dr. Muthen, I have another question about my 2-1-1 mediation MSEM model where the analysis is TWOLEVEL RANDOM. When I use a DV variable that has a normal distribution, I obtain results but also receive the following warnings: *** WARNING in MODEL command. In the MODEL command, the following variable is a y-variable on the BETWEEN level and an x-variable on the WITHIN level. This variable will be treated as a y-variable on both levels [it then lists my level1 within person mediator variable]. *** WARNING One or more individual-level variables have no variation within a cluster for the following clusters. [it then lists my level 1 within person mediator and DV variable] I'm not quite sure what these warnings mean and how to address these warnings in mplus. Here is what my code looks like: USEVARIABLES ARE id x m y; BETWEEN IS x; CLUSTER IS id; MISSING=.; ANALYSIS: TYPE IS TWOLEVEL RANDOM; MODEL: %WITHIN% m y; y ON m; %BETWEEN% x m y; m on x(a); y on m(b); y on x; MODEL CONSTRAINT: NEW(indb); indb=a*b; OUTPUT: TECH1 TECH8 CINTERVAL; Thanks for your help! |
