Overview: This workshop aims to introduce students to the basic concepts of structural equation modeling. The session will go over fitting structural equation models in R, evaluating model fit, interpreting results in substantive terms, and three examples of commonly used structural equation models.
At the end of the workshop, you will be able to
> formulate structural equation models based on theory
> evaluate model fit
> interpret findings from path models, factor models, and structural equation models
Pre-requisites:
