How can I interpret the value of 0,50 of a path coefficient between two latent variables measured by categorical indicators in a SEM model estimated with the WLSMV method?
What is the metric, what is the meaning?

Thank you very much

If f2 is regressed on f1, .5 is the change in f2 associated with a one unit change in f1. Factors have means of zero and estimated variances. The STD option is standardized with respect to the standard deviations of the factors.
