商品描述

This new edition surveys the full range of available structural equation modeling (SEM) methodologies. The book has been updated throughout to reflect the arrival of new software packages, which have made analysis much easier than in the past. Applications in a broad range of disciplines are discussed, particularly in the social sciences where many key concepts are not directly observable. This book presents SEM's development in its proper historical context-essential to understanding the application, strengths and weaknesses of each particular method. This book also surveys the emerging path and network approaches that complement and enhance SEM, and that are growing in importance. SEM's ability to accommodate unobservable theory constructs through latent variables is of significant importance to social scientists. Latent variable theory and application are comprehensively explained and methods are presented for extending their power, including guidelines for data preparation, sample size calculation and the special treatment of Likert scale data. Tables of software, methodologies and fit statistics provide a concise reference for any research program, helping assure that its conclusions are defensible and publishable.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本新版本全面調查了可用的結構方程模型(SEM)方法論。全書已更新,以反映新軟體包的出現,這些軟體使得分析比以往更為簡便。書中討論了廣泛學科中的應用,特別是在社會科學領域,許多關鍵概念並不是直接可觀察的。本書在適當的歷史背景下呈現了SEM的發展,這對於理解每種特定方法的應用、優勢和劣勢至關重要。本書還調查了新興的路徑和網絡方法,這些方法補充並增強了SEM,並且日益重要。SEM通過潛在變數來容納不可觀察的理論構造,對社會科學家來說具有重要意義。潛在變數理論和應用得到了全面解釋,並提出了擴展其效能的方法,包括數據準備、樣本大小計算和Likert量表數據的特殊處理的指導方針。軟體、方法論和擬合統計的表格為任何研究計劃提供了簡明的參考,幫助確保其結論是可辯護和可發表的。
