This is a cutting-edge update of a comprehensive and highly successful textbook. I would recommend it without hesitation to anyone who wants to get to grips with structural equasion modeling in AMOS. K. V. PetridesLondon Psychometric Laboratory, University College London
Very accessible introduction to the topic of Structural Equation Modelling, with a clear focus on social science students. With an emphasize on non-technical issues, and plenty of real world examples I strongly believe this is a very suitable book for students within various fields of social science.
Advance multivariate statistics are central to current research in organisational psychology with SPSS and Amos as the most used softwares.
Too advanced for MA students; PhD students would benefit though
This book is good for introducing students to structural equation modelling, but I would only recommend it as supplementary material for students on an advanced statistics course due to its complexity in parts.
A very useful book to perform structural equation modeling using Amos! Recommended for postgraduate students.
A very comprehensive guide into the use of structural equation modeling with AMOS. The right amount of statistical background combined with easy to understand and comprehensible examples that increase in complexity through the book. The English is clear and easy to follow without losing scientific standards, even for non-native speakers.
In addition, the supplement material provided is excellent, from exercises and data used in the book to published online readings in your field of research.
This is an excellent reference book for Structural Equation Modelling in AMOS. This covers both theoretical as well as applied side of SEM. I would recommend it to anyone interested for applied research with SEM.
This is a good introductory text for those starting out with structural equation modelling. Possibly more suited to students at Level 6 or above.
for interested students, thi book was a good way to gather Information about SEM
I really liked the book as an introduction to SEM for my own work (postgraduate). However, students reported that it was hard to read since advanced knowledge of statistics is assumed.
A well considered work that is hugely valuable for postgraduate students undertaking SEM.
I cannot recommend this book to my students because it is developed from a very advance point of view for them. I am afraid that maybe they are not able to follow the explanations right now. Nonetheless, I think that it should be a very useful text for their thesis, so I will highly recommend them to keep the reference for their future. Meanwhile, they need to improve their basic data analysis skills with some other handbooks.
Easy to follow. Well explained.
This book is a wonderful practical compendium.
This book offers a sound introduction to structural equation modelling and I recommend it to students working with this methodology in their dissertations.
This is an excellent book with comprehensive content that help the readers to who really want to learn Structural Equation Modelling in AMOS. I recommend it to purchase and using it as a reference, because worth buying it.

Although I've said this will be a supplemental text I will strongly recommend it to any of our trainees who are thinking about or planning to use structural equation modelling. It is the most readable introductory book on the topic I've found so far.
Advanced for students level
Great book recommended for students who intend to analyse multiple variables using quantitative techniques.
