Dr Jianjun Tang will give a seminar on Structural Equation Modelling in the Quantitative Methodological Forum on Friday 9th December 2016 at 1pm in the Centre of Public Health (Seminar Room 02 024, Level 2 of the ICSB building, Royal Victoria Hospital), Queen’s University Belfast. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) is a statistical modelling technique that measures latent variables, i.e. those constructs that are known to exist but cannot be directly observed, and their relationships with observed variables within an integrated framework. It was first applied in psychological studies but has been extended to a wide range of fields including economics, behavioural sciences and public health. During the seminar, Dr Tang will introduce the basic principles of SEM, followed by two examples illustrating its applications in the area of public health.
