Hi,
I'd like to know if it's possible to estimate a sem model with ordinal and binary indicators using a WLS estimator based on the raw data including the sampling weights. The data set contains a weight column with an individual weight for each case and I don’t need multilevel modeling.
I am currently using the R package lavaan for SEM analysis. As lavaan does not support this functionality, I’m considering changing to OpenMx.
Looking into feature lists and forum topics I found that OpenMx supports ordinal indicators as well as sampling weights, but I couldn’t figure out if the combination of both is also supported.
Any hint is very appreciated. If anything is unclear I'm happy to give further information.
Best,
Markus
