I have questions about modification indices.

In the output, there are mi , epc, sepc.lv, sepc.all, sepc.nox

Should I take sepc.lv, sepc.all, sepc.nox references to revise my model ?

Thanks!

They have the same interpretation as the std.lv, std.all, and std.nox output in standardizedSolution(), so it just depends what you find meaningful to base your decision on. I usually only consider the fully standardized (*.all) solution.
