说明：  结构方程模型常用于验证性因子分析、高阶因子分析、路径及因果分析、多时段设计、单形模型及多组比较等 。结构方程模型常用的分析软件有LISREL、Amos、EQS、MPlus。结构方程模型可分为测量模型和结构模型。测量模型是指指标和潜变量之间的关系。结构模型是指潜变量之间的关系。
(Structural equation models are often used in confirmatory factor analysis, higher-order factor analysis, path and causality analysis, multi-period design, simplex model and multi-group comparison. The commonly used analytical software for structural equation models are LISREL, Amos, EQS, and MPlus. Structural equation model can be divided into measurement model and structural model. The measurement model refers to the relationship between indicators and latent variables. Structural model refers to the relationship between latent variables.)
