Structural equation modeling with AMOS basic concepts, applications, and programming
This bestselling text provides a practical guide to the basic concepts of structural equation modeling (SEM) and the AMOS program (Versions 17 & 18). The author reviews SEM applications based on actual data taken from her research. Noted for its non-mathematical language, this book is written for the novice SEM user. With each chapter, the author "walks" the reader through all steps involved in testing the SEM model including: • An explanation of the issues addressed. • An illustration of the hypothesized and posthoc models tested. • AMOS input and output with accompanying interpretation and explanation. • The function of the AMOS toolbar icons and their related pull-down menus. • The data and published reference upon which the model was based. With over 50% new material, highlights of the new edition include: • All new screen shots featuring Version 17 of the AMOS program. • All data files now available at www.psypress.com/sem-with-amos. • Application of a multitrait-mulitimethod model, latent growth curve model, and second-order model based on categorical data. • All applications based on the most commonly used graphical interface. • The automated multi-group approach to testing for equivalence. The book opens with an introduction to the fundamental concepts of SEM and the basics of the AMOS program. The next 3 sections present applications that focus on single-group, multiple-group, and multitrait-mutimethod and latent growth curve models. The book concludes with a discussion about non-normal and missing (incomplete) data and two applications capable of addressing these issues.
