Hi Prof. Muthen, I used SEM to test a moderated serial mediation model. I found that bootstrapping with XWITH command takes too much time, about 5-6 days -24 hours a day to finish 1000-1500 resamplings. If I do CFA and export the factor score in csv format and then transfer to mplus input file, afterwards I treat them as manifest variables. Do you think the results would be the same as full SEM model? Regards, Lawrence |

It's an approximation that is better with many good factor indicators. |

Dr. Muthen, Do you have reference for such approach? |
