    How to get the regression results given by Amos in SPSS Statistics

    (You will do this exercise in lesson #07)

  • Some Important Points3:30

    Reflections on important points such as bias, non-normality  and confidence intervals.

  • Building a Diagram in Amos6:09

    Practical exercise: use Amos to build a path diagram.

  • Reproducing Results with SPSS3:34

    Practical exercise: how to get the same results using SPSS Statistics.

    Please note the "zip" file with materials for this exercise (in the resources part of this lesson).

  • Measuring Model Fit3:25

    Practical exercise: how to measure model fit.

    Please note the "zip" file with materials for this exercise (in the resources part of this lesson).

Requirements

  • You should have SPSS Amos installed. There is a free 30-day trial version at the IBM website.

Description

Do path analysis, test model fit, measure indirect effects, recognize and classify mediation types, recognize sources of bias in your estimates, perform confirmatory factor analysis, assess validity (construct, convergent and discriminant), combine path analysis with confirmatory factor analysis to build "full" structural equation models (that is path analysis with latent variables).

Who this course is for:

  • Researchers needing to use Amos to develop instruments and assess the fit of new (or existing) theoretical models.
  • People curious on how Amos can be used with their data analysis workflow (with at least some basic knowledge of concepts such as regression and correlation)
