This comprehensive fifth edition delves into all three approaches to structural equation modeling (SEM), including covariance-based, nonparametric, and composite SEM. It emphasizes the use of accessible software tools like R lavaan, guiding readers through the phases of SEM with best practices and common pitfalls. The text features learning exercises and a new self-test focusing on significance testing, regression, and psychometrics. Additionally, a companion website offers valuable resources such as primers, data, syntax, and output related to the book's examples.

This popular text provides an accessible guide to the application, interpretation, and pitfalls of structural equation modeling (SEM). Reviewed are fundamental statistical concepts--such as correlation, regressions, data preparation and screening, path analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis--as well as more advanced methods, including the evaluation of nonlinear effects, measurement models and structural regression models, latent growth models, and multilevel SEM. The companion Web page offers data and program syntax files for many of the research examples, electronic overheads that can be downloaded and printed by instructors or students, and links to SEM-related resources.
