I have been conducting EFAs in Mplus7. What is the default handling for missing data with categorical variables? (Missing=blank) I thought it was listwise but read somewhere in the blog that it is FIML. I want to be clear for this version of the software and anything else you think I should make sure I justify for this method when reporting. THANK YOU |

If you are using ML or MLR, it in FIML. If you are using WLSMV, it is pairwise present. The default estimator for categorical outcomes is usually WLSMV. Check your output. |
