  <abstract>This book presents a comprehensive overview of Structural Equation Modeling and how it can be applied to address research issues in different disciplines. The authors employ a ‘simple to complex’ approach. The book reviews topics such as variance, covariance, correlation, multiple regression, mediation, moderation, path analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis. The authors then discuss the initial steps for performing structural equation modeling, including model specification, model identification, model estimation, model testing, and model modification. The book includes an introduction to the IBM SPSS and IBM SPSS Amos software. The authors the explain how this software can be utilized for developing measurement, structural models, and SEM models. The book provides conceptual clarity in understanding the models and discusses practical approaches to solving them. The authors also highlight how these techniques can be applied to various disciplines, including psychology, education,sociology, business, medicine, political science, and biological sciences.</abstract>
