Principles and Practice of Structural Equation Modeling Fifth Edition

Principles and Practice of Structural Equation Modeling Fifth Edition

Significantly revised the fifth edition of the most complete accessible text now covers all three approaches to structural equation modeling (SEM)-covariance-based SEM nonparametric SEM (Pearl’s structural causal model) and composite SEM (partial least squares path modeling). With increased emphasis on freely available software tools such as the R lavaan package the text uses data examples from multiple disciplines to provide a comprehensive understanding of all phases of SEM-what to know best practices and pitfalls to avoid.

Introduction to Mediation Moderation and Conditional Process Analysis A Regression-Based Approach

Introduction to Mediation Moderation and Conditional Process Analysis A Regression-Based Approach

Acclaimed for its thorough presentation of mediation moderation and conditional process analysis this book has been updated to reflect the latest developments in PROCESS for SPSS SAS and new to this edition R. Using the principles of ordinary least squares regression Andrew F. Hayes illustrates each step in an analysis using diverse examples from published studies and displays SPSS SAS and R code for each example. Procedures are outlined for estimating and interpreting direct indirect and conditional effects; probing and visualizing interactions; testing hypotheses about the moderation of mechanisms; and reporting different types of analyses. Readers gain an understanding of the link between statistics and causality as well as what the data are telling them. The companion website (www. afhayes. com) provides data for all the examples plus the free PROCESS download. New to This Edition *Rewritten Appendix A which provides the only documentation of PROCESS including a discussion of the syntax structure of PROCESS for R compared to SPSS and SAS. *Expanded discussion of effect scaling and the difference between unstandardized completely standardized and partially standardized effects. *Discussion of the meaning of and how to generate the correlation between mediator residuals in a multiple-mediator model using a new PROCESS option. *Discussion of a method for comparing the strength of two specific indirect effects that are different in sign. *Introduction of a bootstrap-based Johnson–Neyman-like approach for probing moderation of mediation in a conditional process model. *Discussion of testing for interaction between a causal antecedent variable [ital]X[/ital] and a mediator [ital]M[/ital] in a mediation analysis and how to test this assumption in a new PROCESS feature. | Introduction to Mediation Moderation and Conditional Process Analysis A Regression-Based Approach
