Structural equation modeling (SEM) is an advanced statistical technique that allows for the simultaneous testing and estimation of complex cause-and-effect models. SEM combines elements of factor analysis, regression analysis, and path analysis, enabling researchers to model relationships between many observable and latent variables. With SEM, it is possible to test hypotheses about causal relationships, assess the validity and reliability of measurements, and compare different theoretical models.

Roman Konarski's book is not only a textbook but also a practical guide to the world of SEM. The author explains basic concepts and procedures in an accessible way, presents numerous examples of the application of SEM in various fields of the social sciences, and discusses the latest trends and developments in this field. In addition, the book includes a CD with data sets that allow readers to practice and experiment with SEM on their own.

This book is aimed at students, researchers, and practitioners of the social sciences who want to expand their knowledge and skills in the field of quantitative data analysis. SEM is a tool that can significantly enrich the research workshop and enable the conduct of more advanced and comprehensive analyses. Thanks to Roman Konarski's book, SEM becomes accessible and understandable to anyone who wants to delve into the secrets of this fascinating statistical technique.
