Dear John,

Many thanks for your response.
I'd just still like to double check that I have indeed used the raw moment 
matrix method correctly in sem. In my model, some equations are in deviations 
form and have no intercept, while some have intercept.


sem.QT.1 <- sem(mod.QT.1, data=QTrav, formula = ~ X1 + X2 + .... + UNIT -1, 
fixed.x=c('X1','X2',...,'UNIT'), raw=TRUE)

where UNIT is a variable equal to 1 which I appended to the dataset. I used 
UNIT multiplied by a constant in the model equations that require an intercept.

I mainly wanted to check if the above specification of formula, with -1 written 
after UNIT, is correct. The model runs fine.

Thank you,
Maya

Dear Maya,

sem() computes the fit statistics that I know how to compute for a model fit to 
a raw moment matrix. If you know how to compute the others (and if they're 
defined), then you could do that youself using the object returned by sem().

I'm not sure why you want the likelihood under the model in addition to the 
model chisquare, but you can get the *log*-likelihood from logLik(your.model).

Finally, you don't have to compute the raw moment matrix in a separate step (if 
you in fact did that) if you have the original data -- you can use the data 
argument to sem().

I hope this helps,
 John
