(1) Standardized loadings are determined by the loading and the variance of the items and latent variable, hence whilst unstandardized loadings are constrained to equality across groups, standardized loadings will differ; standardized loadings are shown for the white group.
(2) Thresholds are the log-odds of giving a response lower than the current threshold for an individual who has a score of 0 for the latent variable.
