OUTPUT, SAVEDATA, And PLOT CommandsARRAYS FOR THE STRUCTURAL EQUATION PART OFTHE MODELTAUThe tau vector contains information regarding thresholds of categoricalobserved variables. The elements are in the order of thresholds withinvariables.NUThe nu vector contains information regarding means or intercepts ofcontinuous observed variables.LAMBDAThe lambda matrix contains information regarding factor loadings. Therows of lambda represent the observed dependent variables in the model.The columns of lambda represent the continuous latent variables in themodel.THETAThe theta matrix contains the residual variances and covariances of theobserved dependent variables or the latent response variables. The rowsand columns both represent the observed dependent variables.ALPHAThe alpha vector contains the means and/or intercepts of the continuouslatent variables.BETAThe beta matrix contains the regression coefficients for the regressionsof continuous latent variables on continuous latent variables. Both therows and columns represent continuous latent variables.661
