AMOS identifies observed as unobserved variable

Troubleshooting


Problem

I am running Amos and doing an exploratory factor analysis. When I run the model, I get this message: The observed variable PA is represented by an elipse. However, in the analysis, PA is not observed, but is actually UNOBSERVED. Why is this occurring?
