[Lisrel] Need help with Lisrel project

[Jasperina]

Hi,

I am having trouble with my Lisrel Project. If there is someone who knows Lisrel, i would appreciate the help. I put my hypotheses, syntax and output in the attachments.

Thanks in beforehand.

Dear Stat Technicians..

Greetings to you all...

I am working LISREL 8.72 for the Structural Equation model and Factor Analysis. I have 10 Factors under the heading of Conflict Management. I have done the pilot study and collected around 100 Samples. If I go with the SPSS it says that the Alpha Value ( Reliability = 0.92 ) .

Once I started to use the LISREL through SIMPLEX command , (F8) , I have problem that its not working properly and says that the " Model Does not Converge"
I have the output Attached and it gives me error that I couldn't Understand.

Kindly I request the experts to help me to provide the solutions that helps me to understand the LISREL more..

I have attached the Output and please go through for your kind reference.
