Hello,
When requesting standardized coefficients in a measurement or predictive model, why do the variances show as "1" in the attached output (from SEM manual)? When I am request standardization of direct effects of exogenous variables on endogenous, a similar output is given.
Also, why is the first indicator in each latent factor showing that its constrained to "1" when it wasn't requested or its not showing anything of this in the output?
The output is from p. 173 of the SEM Manual at: http://www.stata.com/manuals13/sem.pdf
The explanation of the notes (attached) from SEM manual (p.174) don't seem to answer these questions. Any insight would be great! Thanks.
