Mar 27, 2015 at 17:39 comment added Jeremy Miles SEM is great at what it does, but I don't see what you need here that doesn't involved logistic regression.
Mar 27, 2015 at 16:55 comment added JRK I am also using linear regression model by considering BMI (continuous variable) as response variable
Mar 27, 2015 at 16:52 comment added EdM Is there some reason why you want to code obese versus non-obese when you have actual BMI values? Much information can be lost when you dichotomize a continuous variable like BMI. You could simply have a linear regression of BMI (or perhaps some continuous transformation of BMI) against the predictor variables.
