An estimator is considered for mean and covariance structure analysis of non‐normal continuous variables. This estimator extends the ADF estimator of Browne (1982, 1984) to include structured means. The behaviour of the estimator is compared to that of normal‐theory generalized least‐squares in simulated data.
