This may have been addressed before in the context of other parameters from various platforms, so apologies if so. My question pertains to fit indexes between LISREL/Mplus/Rstats(Lavaan package). Specifically, while the CFI between Mplus/Lavaan is the same, the CFI in LISREL is on the order +.10. This is also in the context of other fit statistics which are generally close between all three (e.g., SRMR). Any idea as to the 'more favorable' CFI generated by LISREL? |

The baseline model for Mplus is means and variances of both dependent and independent variables and the covariances of independent variables. Factor indicators are dependent variables. LISREL uses a baseline model of means and variances of all variables and no covariances among any variables. This is why the LISREL CFI is better. |
