Structural Equation Modeling With EQS

Basic Concepts, Applications, and Programming, Second Edition

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Beginning with an overview of the basic concepts of SEM and the EQS program, this book works through applications starting with simple single group analyses, through to more advanced applications, such as a multi-group, latent growth curve, and multilevel modeling. It provides a non-mathematical introduction to the basic concepts of SEM.

Researchers and students who want a more accessible alternative to the EQS manual will find exactly what they're looking for in this practical text. Written specifically for those with little to no knowledge of structural equation modeling (SEM) or EQS the author "walks" the reader through the varied steps involved in the process of testing SEM
