Introduction to Structural Equation Modeling
Duration: 1 half-day session CEU: 0.3
Presented by Werner Wothke, Ph.D., Principal Statistician, American Institutes for Research
This lecture focuses on structural equation modeling (SEM), a statistical technique that combines elements of traditional multivariate models, such as regression analysis, factor analysis, and simultaneous equation modeling.
Learn how to
- set up a multiple regression model with both PROC REG and PROC CALIS
- inspect iterative model fitting by PROC CALIS
- set up and modify a theory-driven factor model and interpret the results.
