The following paper presents current thinking and research on fit indices for structural equation modelling. The paper presents a selection of fit indices that are widely regarded as the most informative indices available to researchers. As well as outlining each of these indices, guidelines are presented on their use. The paper also provides reporting strategies of these indices and concludes ...

While the importance of IT-business alignment is rarely questioned, a strong theoretical foundation of alignment’s nomological network has not been developed or tested. This has generated a debate on why tighter alignment may or may not lead to higher levels of firm performance. To further understand the alignment-performance relationship, we used meta-analytic structural equation modeling tech...

Theoretical analyses and experimental studies of synthesized assemblages indicate that under particular circumstances species diversity can enhance community productivity through niche complementarity. It remains unclear whether this process has important effects in mature natural ecosystems where competitive feedbacks and complex environmental influences affect diversity-productivity relations...

This work investigates the effects that different success criteria and their dimensions may have on the success of IT projects. It focuses on a model that represents the management’s view of the success of an IT project. This is of particular interest due to demand for developing and examining such a model. To show the effects of the success criteria and their dimensions a survey of 646 partici...

This paper explores whether the relationships among different dimensions of strategic planning outcomes are moderated by the predominant participation of top via middle managers in the strategic planning process. Drawing on survey data from 164 large firms, we use structural equation modeling to examine the relationships among four outcome variables. We provide support for three major findings....

Cultural (organizational learning culture) and behavioral (organizational citizenship behaviors) antecedents of knowledge sharing are discussed in the present study. Data was collected from 402 employees of Malaysia. Structural equation model confirms that OLC was positively related to OCB and knowledge sharing. OCB was also found to perform the role of mediator between OLC and knowledge sharing.

Structural equation models are routinely applied to data collected from complex samples. Methods to take account of the sample design and weights are discussed in a growing literature on the topic. This paper provides a literature review of the analysis of complex samples using structural equation models. The goal of the paper is to extract the points of agreement and disagreement from these pu...
