  14. 1. In structural equation modeling, if multinormality assumption is not held,
  15. what is an appropriate estimation method and an appropriate way to assess the
  16. goodness of fit?
  17.  
  18. 2. To construct the composite variable, can I simply add up several original
  19. variables?  (I have small cases and Factor analysis did not give me expected
  20. results).
