About the course
The course introduces the core methods of structural equation modelling (SEM), a family of statistical approaches that explore complex relationships between and among latent (unobserved) and observed variables. In addition, the course emphasises the empirical applications of SEM and latent variable techniques to broadly address relevant questions in the different disciplines. Course lectures, readings, and assignments will reflect this applied focus. At the end of the course, you are expected to understand the essential issues within SEM and be able to carry out analysis independently.
