Structural Equation Modeling in the Communication Sciences, 1995-2000.
Holbert, R. Lance; Stephenson, Michael T.
Human Communication Research, v28 n4 p531-51 Oct 2002
Notes that structural equation modeling (SEM) is a viable multivariate tool used by communication researchers for the past quarter century. Summarizes the use of this technique from 1995-2000 in 37 communication-based academic journals. Identifies and critically assesses 3 unique methods for testing structural relationships via SEM in terms of the specification, estimation, and evaluation of their respective structural equation models. Provides general guidelines for the use of SEM. (SG)
