Hello LAVAAN members
Discover how foundational SEM concepts can enhance your latent variable analysis using lavaan. Structural Equation Modeling 1: Foundations & Programs led by Kevin Grimm (Department of Psychology, Arizona State University) is now available as an on-demand streaming seminar. This workshop provides the essential foundations of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), a powerful technique for examining complex relationships among variables, directly applicable to latent variable analysis within the lavaan framework. Understanding these core principles, including path diagrams and various notation systems, will significantly enhance your ability to effectively build, specify, and interpret SEMs using the lavaan package in R. Mastering these foundational concepts and software applications empowers researchers to rigorously test theoretical models and analyze complex mediation and moderation effects in their own work.
Access this seminar whenever convenient and feel free to circulate this with colleagues and students who may be interested!
Best wishes
