, the user provided covariance matrix is
internally rescaled by multiplying it with a factor (N-1)/N, to ensure
that the covariance matrix has been divided by N. This can be turned off
by setting the sample.cov.rescale
argument to FALSE

if the estimator is "DWLS"
, only the diagonal of this matrix will be
used. For a multiple group analysis, a list with a weight matrix
for each group. The elements of the weight matrix should be in the
following order (if all data is continuous): first the means (if a
meanstructure is involved), then the lower triangular elements of the
covariance matrix including the diagonal, ordered column by column. In
the categorical case: first the thresholds (including the means for
continuous variables), then the slopes (if any), the variances of
continuous variables (if any), and finally the lower triangular elements
of the correlation/covariance matrix excluding the diagonal, ordered
column by column.WLS.V
