Edited by:
May 1995 | 312 pages | SAGE Publications, Inc
This largely nontechnical volume reviews some of the major issues facing researchers who wish to use structural equation modelling. Individual chapters present recent developments on specification, estimation and testing, statistical power, software comparisons and analyzing multitrait/multimethod data. Numerous examples of applications are given and attention is paid to the underlying philosophy of structural equation modelling and to writing up results from structural equation modelling analyses.
