Editorial Reviews
Review
This is just a brief note to let you know how useful I have found your text, A Step-by-Step Approach to Using the SAS System for Factor Analysis and Structural Equation Modeling. Yours is the only book I have encountered that deals so directly and simply with the points of confusion that arise in factor analysis. The words, phraseology, and illustrations that you use will become part of my vocabulary when I write up my analysis or explain my work to clients and coworkers who do not have a statistical background. The book is truly step-by-step and will make it easy for me to guide the work of others should the need arise. --Bob Gerzoff, Centers for Disease Control, Atlanta

Product Description
Packed with concrete examples, Hatcher's book provides an introduction to more advanced statistical procedures and includes handy appendices that give basic instruction in using the SAS System. Novice SAS users will find all they need to master SAS basics and move into advanced statistical analyses in this one book. Featured is a simple, step-by-step approach to testing structural equation models with latent variables using the CALIS procedure. The following topics are explained in easy-to-understand terms: exploratory factor analysis, principal component analysis, and developing measurement models with confirmatory factor analysis. Other covered topics of note include "LISREL-type" analyses with the user-friendly PROC CALIS and solving problems encountered in real-world social science research.
Supports releases 6.09 and higher of SAS software.
