95% confidence interval for standardized beta coefficient in structural equation modeling

  • 1.  95% confidence interval for standardized beta coefficient in structural equation modeling

    Dear colleagues,

    Does anyone know of a way to obtain 95% confidence intervals for standardized beta coefficients in structural equation modeling (SEM)?
    I am using SAS (9.3) PROC CALIS to run the SEM. So far I coldnt find an option in the procedure documentation. 

    Thank you for the feedback

    I usually use bootstrapping for such purposes. BCa intervals may be a good choice. I don't use SAS, mostly use R, and Mplus for SEM modeling, but SAS also has good bootstrapping facilities.
