Overview
Careers
These models may contain multiple independent, dependent and mediating variables (interactions and categorical dependent variables can be problematic depending on the software used). Maastricht University - Center for European Studies' Introduction to Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) can also be used for confirmative factor analysis. The objective of this course is to introduce the user to the many possibilities and limitations of SEM and to practice this method using real datasets. This is done with LISREL, the oldest known computer program for SEM.
Programme Structure
Courses include:
- SEM and LISREL: possibilities and conditions.
- Confirmative versus explorative factor analysis.
- Causal modelling with SEM/LISREL versus regression analysis.
- Advanced models: factor and regression analysis combined, multi-sample LISREL (groups)
