Applied researchers often use confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to assess the construct validity of tests composed of items eliciting ordinal data. A theoretically appropriate method for conducting CFA with categorical data involves estimating the bivariate relationships among the observed items via polychoric correlations and then fitting the factor model using either weighted least squares (WLS) estimation, as per Muthén (1984), or a “robust WLS” method as presented by Muthén, Du Toit, and Spisic (1997). These procedures entail the assumption that a continuous, normal response process determines each item response. Very few research studies have assessed the finite sample properties of this categorical variable methodology (CVM) for CFA and none of these has specifically addressed the normality assumption for the underlying response variables. For the present research, I simulated ordinal data arising from both normal and non-normal continuous distributions that conform to properly specified CFA models of varying complexity, and fit the models using CVM. The findings suggest robustness to violation of the latent normality assumption and also demonstrate advantages of the “robust WLS” method relative to full WLS estimation.
