Summary

This volume provides statisticians and graduate students with a comprehensive view of structural equation modeling using several different command languages.

Additional text

"...I highly recommend the book to novice LISREL users as the starting point for learning this increasingly popular statistical tool and for intermediate users who need to refresh their skills."
—Contemporary Psychology
"...the book is definitely well written in simple language, yet with very rich information conveyed. It is destined that this book will become one of the most popular textbooks or self-taught guides for first- to intermediate-level SEM instruction."
—Structural Equation Modeling
