Building a Better Model: An Introduction to Structural Equation Modelling

An Introduction to Structural Equation Modeling

In this contribution the principles behind Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) are presented. SEM is used for assessing the quality of models that are proposed on the basis of theory and experience. This contribution has an introductory level.

A Brief Introduction to Structural Equation Models

An Information Security Culture Model Validated with Structural Equation Modelling

Information security culture must be considered as part of the information security programme to direct employee behaviour. Such a culture can contribute to the protection of information and minimise the risk that employee behaviour poses. This paper proposes a theoretical model, i.e. an information security culture model (ISCM) with four mechanisms (i.e. management, policies, awareness and com...

Structural equation modelling: Adjudging model fit

For journal editors, reviewers, and readers of research articles, structural equation model (SEM) fit has recently become a confusing and contentious area of evaluative methodology. Proponents of two kinds of approaches to model fit can be identified: those who adhere strictly to the result from a null hypothesis significance test, and those who ignore this and instead index model fit as an app...
