Hi,
I am using Structural Equation Model (SEM) with Panel Data (3 years). My dependent variable is ordinal and I used ordered probit analysis with the help of GSEM command. Command is mentioned below.
A1701, A1702 and A1703 is dependent variable. Here I also want measure the direct and indirect effect. LnNSDPcC1 LnNSDPcC2 & LnNSDPcC3 having direct effect on A1701 and it having effect of other variable too which I mentioned in the above command. I want to know whether the command I have been used is correct or not. I am sharing my results as well.
