Using Mplus for Structural Equation Modeling: A Researcher's Guide

Retaining the successful five-step process employed in Kevin Kelloway's 1998 book Using LISREL for Structural Equation Modeling, this edition updates it for Mplus, the "new LISREL". Mplus, which is growing in popularity, incorporates the ability to model both continuous and categorical latent and observed variables in a structural equation modelling framework, and the ability to estimate multi-level structural equation models. This new book provides students with a reader-friendly introduction to the major types of structural equation models implemented in the Mplus framework.
