Hi,
I am using SEM to predict pathways from my IV to 3 different DVs (1 categorical, 2 continuous). I had originally estimated the model using ML (without specifying that one of my outcomes was categorical), and the model fit was sufficient. However, when I specified the categorical outcome (via CATEGORICAL IS) and used WLSMV estimation, the model fit got much worse, and the path estimates for my continuous variables were quite different. I'm wondering if you could let me know 1) why the model fit would look much worse when estimating with WLSMV, and 2) whether it would be appropriate to use MLR estimation, since I do have only one categorical outcome.
Thank you! |

| Perhaps your sample size is low so that the WLSMV chi-square doesn't work well. We need to see the 2 outputs you refer to - send to Support along with your license number. |

| I will do that- thank you. |
