Note. Factor loading population value = .7; factor correlation population value = .3. s = skewness; k = kurtosis; WLS = weighted least squares; RB = mean relative bias across replications. For loadings, M is the pooled mean within-cell factor loadings; SD is the square root of within-cell factor loading variances.
