model did not converge

Post by ISGUE »

Hello,

I am trying to conduct a second order CFA but I have got the following error messages:
Nota. lavaan WARNING: some starting values are non-finite; replacing them with 0.5; please provide better starting values.
Nota. number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length
The model cannot be estimated, please refine it. Reason: : fit measures not available if model did not converge

The sintax I used was:

SPART=~c13SPA3f+c13SPA3e+c13SPA3d
SCOMP=~c13SCO3c+c13SCO3b+c13SCO3a
AE1=~c4AE3a+c4AE3b+c4AE3c+c4AE3d+c4AE3e+c4A3fi+c4A3gi
AE2=~c4AE3h+c4AE3i+c4AE3j+c4AE3k+c4AE3l
AE3=~c4AE3ll+c4AE3m+c4AE3n+c4AE3ñ
AE4=~c4AE3o+c4AE3p+c4AE3q+c4AE3r
SCL=~c3CLS3n+c3CLS3m+c3CLS3ll+c3CLS3l+c3CLS3k+c3CLS3j+c3CLS3i+c3CLS3h+c3CLS3g+c3CLS3f+c3CLS3e+c3CLS3d+c3CLS3c+c3CLS3b+c3CLS3a
SPERF=~SPART+SCOMP
AE=~AE1+AE2+AE3+AE4

Any ideas about what I am doing wrong?

Regards
