I have a model with 2 ordered construct, in the first order, I have one dimension with only 1 indicator. When I run the factor loading test, it shows 1 on this indicator. When I run Bootstrapping, it show 0.
Can I just report these figures? Or I have to modify something?

For a construct with only one item, the factor loading is fixed to 1. Thus, T value is zero.
