Hi, I appreciate the help. 

My attempt to free the third slope parameter isn't working below, while freeing it in MPlus succeeds. Is there another approach I'm not applying to free it? Thanks. 

Mod <- '
  # intercept and slope with fixed coefficients
    i =~ 1*N1T1 + 1*N1T2 + 1*N1T3
    s =~ 0*N1T1 + 1*N1T2 + NA*N1T3
    #variances
    #s~~.001*s
'
fit<-growth(Mod,data,missing='fiml',estimator="MLR",control=list(iter.max=1000))

Brandon

can you show us the output from that syntax?

Y'know, Mauricio. I think I made a mistake, and it seems to be working just fine now. I appreciate your help.
