partial invariance

[ecelik]

I am analyzing measurement invariance using the Holzinger and Swineford (1939) dataset.
I would like to remove the equality constraint for item 3 and item 7 in the partial invariance model.
Can you please help?
Thank you.

use this syntax to achieve partial invariance, and do not select "Loadings" in the multi-group options

Code: Select all

visual=~c(a1,a1)*x1+c(a2,a2)*x2+x3
textual=~c(a4,a4)*x4+c(a5,a5)*x5+c(a6,a6)*x6
speed=~x7+c(a8,a8)*x8+c(a9,a9)*x9

Thank you for your help and answer.

However, even though all the variable names are correct, I keep getting the error "undefined columns slected".

Even though I rewrote the syntax over and over, I keep getting the same error.
