Structural Equation Modeling II: Latent Variables
February 2, 2017 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Modern Languages Building (MLB), Room 2001B
This workshop will help participants develop skills in understanding and conducting latent variable models, and specifically from the perspective of structural equation modeling. After a conceptual overview, a broad view of matrix factorization techniques will be provided along with specific examples (e.g. PCA, ‘factor analysis’). In addition, measurement error issues, reliability, and scale development will be discussed (e.g. ‘confirmatory’ factor analysis). Prerequisites: One should have a firm understanding of basic regression. R will be the program of choice, but nothing beyond very basic skill is assumed. While this workshop can serve as a standalone session, it is required for SEM III: Structural Equation Modeling.
