Introducing LISREL

A Guide for the Uninitiated

af Adamantios Diamantopoulos

Emphasizing substantive issues rather than intricate statistical details, this book provides a comprehensive introduction to LISREL for structural equation modeling (SEM) using a non-technical, user-oriented approach. It provides a critical understanding of what is really involved in LISREL modeling and sensitizes the reader against `mechanically' fitting or modifying models.
