Some questions on SEM with AMOS

Johnny Amora
Good day Madam! I have several questions related to
SEM with AMOS.  Please kindly answer.

(1) I am constructing SEM. Can AMOS handle an
    observed endogenous dichotomous variable?

(2) AMOS can provide text outputs on normality
    test,(a)are all variables, exogenous and
    endogenous, need to be normally distributed?
    (b)What values of the critical ratio and Skew
    are considered univariate normal? (c) How to
    interpret the kurtosis and critical ratio for
    the multivariate?

(3) On the Mahalanobis d-squared output, I think
    large values of mahaloanobis d-squared indicate
    outliers.  Kindly explain what are the uses of
    p1 and p2.

Thank you.

Respectfully yours,

Johnny Amora
