N2  - This bestselling text provides a balance between the technical and practical aspects of structural equation modeling (SEM). Using clear and accessible language, Rex B. Kline covers core techniques, potential pitfalls, and applications across the behavioral and social sciences. Some more advanced topics are also covered, including estimation of interactive effects of latent variables and multilevel SEM. The companion Web page offers downloadable syntax, data, and output files for each detailed example for EQS, LISREL, and Mplus, allowing readers to view the results of the same analysis generated by three different computer tools.
       Part I: Concepts and tools. Introduction ; Fundamental concepts ; Data preparation ; Computer tools
        Part II: Core techniques. Specification ; Identification ; Estimation ; Hypothesis testing ; Measurement models and confirmatory factor analysis ; Structural regression models
