Proc Calis: SEM with interaction term for binary latent variables

Tetrix · Posted 04-07-2022 12:43 AM

I have a SEM with 3 binary (no/yes) exogeneous factors and several dependent variables. Reviewers suggest to include the interaction effects of the exogeneous factors in the model, but I am not sure how to do this in Calis. Any help welcome!

I do not think you can model interaction involving a latent variable in PROC CALIS.

The only way I can think of is to use PROC GLMMOD to create a dataset with dummy variables for the main effects and interactions, and then use that data set as input to PROC CALIS.
