Designed to help beginners estimate and test structural equation modelling (SEM) using the EQS approach, this book demonstrates a variety of SEM/EQS applications that include both partial factor analytic and full latent variable models. Beginning with an overview of the basic concepts of SEM and the EQS program, the author works through applications starting with a single sample approach through to more advanced applications, such as a multi-sample approach. The book concludes with a section on using EQS for modelling with Windows.
