Appendix B. Structural Equation Modeling: Methodological Notes and Results

Modeling the Community-Based Development Approach in Neighborhood Development Planning with Structural Equation Methods (Case Study: Golkaran Neighborhood of Abarkouh City)

The aim of the present study was to model a community-  based development approach in neighborhood development planning using structural equation methods. The analytical-descriptive research method is applied with a practical purpose and the approach governing the research space with a methodological focus is a quantitative approach. Two library and survey methods have been used to gather infor...

Lecture Notes #13: Reliability and Structural Equation Modeling 13-1

Lecture Notes #13: Reliability & Structural Equation Modeling 13-1

These lecture notes present some basic intuitions underlying structural equations modeling (SEM). If you find this technique useful in your research, I suggest that you take a semester-long course on SEM and/or hierarchical linear model (HLM). It turns out that SEM and HLM are essentially the same technique but some things are easier to implement in one versus the other so disciplines tend to f...

Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) in Health Sciences Education Researches: An Overview of the Method and Its Application

Introduction: There are many situations through which researchers of human sciences particularly in health sciences education attempt to assess relationships of variables. Moreover researchers may be willing to assess overall fit of theoretical models with the data emerged from the study population. This review introduces the structural equation models method and its application in health scien...

A Model of Iranian EFL Learners\' Cultural Identity: A Structural Equation Modeling Approach

This study aimed, firstly, to investigate the underlying components of Iranian cultural identity and, secondly, to confirm the aforementioned components via Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis. In order to achieve these goals, the researchers reviewed the extensive local and international literature on language, culture and identity. Based on the literature and consultations with a grou...
