(1) introduction
(2) path analysis
~ what are those shapes and arrows mean: regression, predictors, latent variables, residuals, correlations, association
~ what are differences between normal models and structural models: mediators...and others, dependent variables, structured relations
~ how to design the path diagrams: can be hypothesis-driven, then test them; or data-driven (could be dangerous)
~ test the indirect effect (with one or more mediators): should be tested all of them as a unit (@ 19:45)
(3) factor analysis
~ observed factors/data
~ latent factors
(4) SEM
- model fit
~ the residuals
~ observed data and the model
~ several indices to evaluate the model
he describes relative goodness-of-fit indices (TLI, CFI, IFI) and absolute goodness-of-fit indices (RMSEA) as well as the standardized root mean residual (SRMR). He concludes with recommendations for how all of these measures of model fit can be used in practice.
