Hi,
I'm trying to carry out a multidimensional analysis. Data set contains 452 cases form 24 items, each with ratings from 0 to 4. number of dimensions 5. When trying to fit a between-item multidimensional model with rating scale model, a message with "Too many levels in response values:50" comes. What does it mean?.
Here is the code I'm using:
datafile multidimensional.txt;
format district 1-2 genre 3 prof 4 knowledge 5 responses 6-29;
labels << labels-prof.txt;
codes 0,1,2,3,4;
score (0,1,2,3,4) (0,1,2,3,4) ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) ! items (1-3 7-9 16);
score (0,1,2,3,4) ( ) (0,1,2,3,4) ( ) ( ) ( ) ! items (4-6 10-12 14);
score (0,1,2,3,4) ( ) ( ) (0,1,2,3,4) ( ) ( ) ! items (13 21-24);
score (0,1,2,3,4) ( ) ( ) ( ) (0,1,2,3,4) ( ) ! items (19 20);
score (0,1,2,3,4) ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) (0,1,2,3,4) ! items (15 17 18);
model item + step;
set warnings=no,update=yes;
estimate!method=montecarlo,nodes=2000,converge=.005;
Thanks for any help
Luis
