Hi,

Can I use two point scale (interval changes from 0 to 1) for measurement model and structural model evaluation?

Thanks

Yes,
In the same way that we use dummy variables in multiple regression models.

Best regards,

Hi,

I am now very confused about using a dummy variable as an edogenous variable in my SEM model.
In my data analysis the dependent variable is measured by:" I can imagine to introduce the product" the answer yes or no

or I could use the variable: "How high is the probability that I will introduce this product measured by 5 point likert scale"

Could you please give me a hint?

What happens exactly in the model when both interval and dichotomous variables are used together?

Thanks for any help
