Williams, John D. – Multiple Linear Regression Viewpoints, 1978
Path analysis is a data analytic technique for estimating the strengths of hypothesized relationships among a group of variables for a particular sample. Strategies for the use of path analysis are discussed in detail in this extensive article. (JKS)

Wolfe, Lee M. – Multiple Linear Regression Viewpoints, 1977
The analytical procedure of path analysis is described in terms of its use in nonexperimental settings in the social sciences. The description assumes a moderate statistical background on the part of the reader. (JKS)

Kukuk, Cris R.; And Others – Multiple Linear Regression Viewpoints, 1978
The direct and indirect effects of neighborhood characteristics on school-level reading achievement were investigated via path analysis in this study. Race, family structure, income, and neighborhood density were among the variables investigated. (Author/JKS)

Wolfe, Lee M. – Multiple Linear Regression Viewpoints, 1979
The inclusion of unmeasured variables in path analyses in educational research is discussed. The statistical basis for inclusion is presented, along with several examples. (JKS)
