A Tutorial for Analyzing Structural Equation Modelling

This paper provides a tutorial discussion on analyzing structural equation modelling (SEM). SEM can be regarded as regression models with observed and unobserved indicators, have been extensively applied to practical and fundamental studies. We deliver an introduction to SEM method and a detailed description of how to deal with analyzing the data with this kind of modelling. The intended audience is statisticians/mathematicians/methodologists who either know about SEM or simple basic statistics especially in regression and linear/nonlinear modeling, and Ph.D. students in statistics, mathematics, management, psychology, and even computer science.
