Greetings. I am unclear as to which standardized estimates I should report for categorical CFAs using WLSMV estimation. Note that these are CFAs conducted prior to cross-cultural measurement invariances tests. Should I report STD, STDY or STDYX? All three display. I assume STD, but cannot find anything definitive in the Mplus manual.

Sorry, I meant I assume STDYX

You want to standardize wrt to the factor and the indicator (a "y") so you should use STDY (it will be the same as STDYX in this case because you have no X).

Great, thank you. You are correct that STDYX was the same as STDY in all output, so if needed I will cite as STDY.
