Nota di contenuto Background. What does it mean to model hypothesized causal processes with nonexperimental data? -- History and logic of structural equation modeling -- Basic approaches to modeling with single observed measures of theoretical variables. The basics: path analysis and partitioning of variance -- Effects of collinearity on regression and path analysis -- Effects of random and nonrandom error on path models -- Recursive and longitudinal models: where causality goes in more than one direction and where data are collected over time -- Factor analysis and path modeling. Introducing the logic of factor analysis and multiple indicators to path modeling -- Latent variable structural equation models. Putting it all together: latent variable structural equation modeling -- Using latent variable structural equation modeling to examine plausibility of models -- Logic of alternative models and significance tests -- Variations on the basic latent variable structural equation model -- Wrapping up -- Appendix A: A brief introduction to matrix algebra and structural equation modeling.
