Hello.

Sorry, I am new to the package. I already search for the answer in this group, but could not find the answer.

I want to test validity for my CFA model.

I would like to ask how can I calculate MSV (Maximum Shared Variance) and ASV (Average Shared Variance) for the latent variables in my model?

any advice would be really appreciated

Thank you

I don't know about MSV, but if ASV is the same thing as "average variance extracted" (AVE), that is available from the semTools package
