I have designed this hands-on course to provide you an intense yet enjoyable instructional experience that focuses on a large number of both introductory and advanced topics in SEM using the latest version of one of the most well-known software package, IBM AMOS (Analysis of Moment Structures). In this course I will provide the materials and instruction that you need to both develop a good understanding of SEM and to be able to thoughtfully apply a variety of basic and advanced models to your data. More specifically, this course will cover a broad range of topics such as
• data preparation,
• model development,
• model fit assessment using various indexes,
• construct reliability and validity assessment using various methods,
• different methods to improve your model,
• structural model assessment,
• hypothesis testing,
• mediation using Baron and Kenny approach
• mediation using Sobel test
• mediation using bootstrapping method
• moderation,
• and multi-group analysis

Many many thanks Prof., for the lucid explanation of the advanced topics.

Hi :) What should I do with the CFA of the research model consisting of a measurement variable with one question?

Thank you very much for your great videos, Professor! I would like to ask why the mediation model results have different results in comparison to the model in which we use the full constructs, not employing data imputation. Thank you very much, Professor!

Professor,
i have a problem with data imputation, when i click on impute, this error message appears : "A sample of parameter values was inadmissible" and then, : " 1 parameter samples were inadmissible. 0 completed data sets have been created".
what can i do to fix this ?
Thanks in advance !

dr. thank you for your valuable teaching AMOS, i have a question?is it ok if i put my imputed model and the result? (my actually sem results rsm :.08 while in the imputed model, fit rsm : .055 and chi-square is 0 . so may is it correct if i put the imputed model in mt thesis?

1st thanks proff, but I am wondering after imputation why the variables in box not on Elliptical shape

Hey Prof.,
thank you very much for this brilliant series on SEM.
I have a SEM with a couple of second order and one third order latent variable. Can I still impute the model?

[sumitsangwan]

Prof., I worked so far without data imputation. Now tried as you have explained in this video but now model fit summary of SEM output not showing CMIN, DF and AGFI values. Moreover, GFI, NFI and CFI reported is 1.00; RMSEA = 0.392. Please suggest Prof.

When I was operating on Likert scale data, I thought that by averaging each Likert variable, I could undertake my research like I had just observed in this video. I think I was right.
