Peer reviewedWilliams, 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)

Peer reviewedBurt, Ronald S.; And Others – Sociological Methods and Research, 1979
An example demonstrates that Joreskog's suggested sufficient conditions for identifying unknown parameters in a confirmatory factor analytic model with correlated factors are not sufficient. Sufficient conditions are presented. (Author/JKS)

Path analysis is presented as a technique that can be used to test on a priori model based on a theoretical conceptualization involving a network of selected variables. This being an introductory source, no previous knowledge of path analysis is assumed, although some understanding of the fundamentals of multiple regression analysis might be…

Jovick, Thomas D. – 1978
A Monte Carlo simulation was used to ascertain the degree of inflation that can occur in regression estimates when samples contain randomly occurring instances of a pattern among correlations called cooperative suppression. Ten thousand samples of scores on three variables were randomly drawn from a population in which the correlations among the…
