Hi,
Does anybody know if Jamovi calculates tetrachoric correlation matrix or if there is a way how to submit it as the input for the CFA?
Do you know what correlation is used for the CFA in Jamovi? My data are binary and I do not know what kind of correlation matrix is behind the outcomes of the CFA. Thank you.

Hi Martina,

At the moment CFA only supports continuous variables. But you can make a feature request over here (I think it's a good idea to support ordinal and binary variables): https://github.com/jamovi/jamovi/issues
