Hi,

I was trying the model in Ex8.1 from the user guide (different from the original model, here y3 and y4 are not fixed). I wonder why the values of I on X and S on X are identical for the two classes (as pointed out by the arrows below). Shouldn't the values differ between the two classes? Thanks!


Latent Class 1

[Omitted]

I ON
X 0.460 0.101 4.553 0.000 <-----

S ON
X 0.337 0.043 7.907 0.000 <-----

S WITH
I -0.036 0.047 -0.777 0.437

[Omitted]

Latent Class 2

[Omitted]

I ON
X 0.460 0.101 4.553 0.000 <-----

S ON
X 0.337 0.043 7.907 0.000 <-----

S WITH
I -0.036 0.047 -0.777 0.437

[Omitted]

They are held equal as the default. If you mention them in the class-specific parts of the MODEL command, the equality will be relaxed.
