This book illustrates the ease with which various features of LISREL 8 and PRELIS 2 can be implemented in addressing research questions that lend themselves to SEM. Its purpose is threefold: (a) to present a nonmathmatical introduction to basic concepts associated with SEM, (b) to demonstrate basic applications of SEM using both the DOS and Windows versions of LISREL 8, as well as both the LISREL and SIMPLIS lexicons, and (c) to highlight particular features of the LISREL 8 and PRELIS 2 progams that address important caveats related to SEM analyses.

This book is intended neither as a text on the topic of SEM, nor as a comprehensive review of the many statistical funcitons available in the LISREL 8 and PRELIS 2 programs. Rather, the intent is to provide a practical guide to SEM using the LISREL approach. As such, the reader is "walked through" a diversity of SEM applications that include both factor analytic and full latent variable models, as well as a variety of data management procedures.

Industry Reviews

"...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
