Although the methodology for handling ordinal and dichotomous observed variables in structural equation models (SEMs) is developing rapidly, several important issues are unresolved. One of these is ...

Meta-Analytic Structural Equation Modeling (MASEM) represents a powerful and integrative statistical framework that combines the rigour of meta-analysis with the complexity of structural equation ...

From a functional perspective, changes in abundance, and ultimately species replacement, during succession are a consequence of integrated suites of traits conferring different relative ecological ...

Regulators need a method that is versatile, is easy to use and can handle complex path models with latent (not directly observable) variables. In a first application of partial least squares ...
