The first goal of this study…

Baldwin, Beatrice – 1986
LISREL-type structural equation modeling is a powerful statistical technique that seems appropriate for social science variables which are complex and difficult to measure. The literature on the specification, estimation, and testing of such models is voluminous. The greatest proportion of this literature, however, focuses on the technical aspects…

Whitley, Bernard E., Jr.; Golin, Sanford – 1981
Most research examining the relationship between sex role orientation and psychological well-being has been guided by either the congruence, androgyny, or masculinity model. The congruence model predicts that low self-esteem and high depression are consequences of gender/sex role incongruence. The androgyny model predicts that high self-esteem and…

Jovick, Thomas D. – 1978
This report explains why the Management Implications of Team Teaching (MITT) project chose multiple linear regression and path analysis to analyze through-time relationships among variables, and why it rejected repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) and difference scores over time. Project MITT examined governance and work structures for…

The first panel of a three-year longitudinal study was conducted to investigate the process by which youth form career expectations. The study was designed around a cross-sectional path model of career expectations drawn from the sociological literature on status attainment and is based on differential equations in which all expectation variables…
