内容提要:	Discovering Structural Equation Modeling Using Stata is devoted to Stata's sem command and all it can do. Learn about its capabilities in the context of confirmatory factor analysis, path analysis, structural equation modeling, longitudinal models, and multiple-group analysis. Each model covered is presented along with the necessary Stata code, which is parsimonious, powerful, and can be modified to fit a wide variety of models. The datasets used are downloadable, and you are encouraged to run the programs in a hands-on approach to learning. A particularly exciting feature of Stata is the SEM builder. This graphic interface for structural equation modeling allows you to draw publication-quality path diagrams and to fit the models without writing any programming code. When you fit a model with the SIM builder, Stata automatically generates the complete code that you can save for future use. Use of this unique tool is extensively covered in an appendix, and brief examp
