Winner of the 2015 Sugiyama Meiko Award (Publication Award) of the Behaviormetric Society of JapanDeveloped by the authors, generalized structured component analysis is an alternative to two longstanding approaches to structural equation modeling: covariance structure analysis and partial least squares path modeling. Generalized structured component analysis allows researchers to evaluate the adequacy of a model as a whole, compare a model to alternative specifications, and conduct complex analyses in a straightforward manner. Generalized Structured Component Analysis: A Component-Based Approach to Structural Equation Modeling provides a detailed account of this novel statistical methodology and its various extensions. The authors present the theoretical underpinnings of generalized structured component analysis and demonstrate how it can be applied to various empirical examples. The book enables quantitative methodologists, applied researchers, and practitioners to grasp the basic concepts behind this new approach and apply it to their own research.The book emphasizes conceptual discussions throughout while relegating more technical intricacies to the chapter appendices. Most chapters compare generalized structured component analysis to partial least squares path modeling to show how the two component-based approaches differ when addressing an identical issue. The authors also offer a free, online software program (GeSCA) and an Excel-based software program (XLSTAT) for implementing the basic features of generalized structured component analysis.

The volume represents presentations given at the 86th annual meeting of the Psychometric Society, held virtually on July 19–23, 2021. About 500 individuals contributed paper presentations, symposiums, poster presentations, pre-conference workshops, keynote presentations, and invited presentations.

The volume represents presentations given at the 86th annual meeting of the Psychometric Society, held virtually on July 19–23, 2021. About 500 individuals contributed paper presentations, symposiums, poster presentations, pre-conference workshops, keynote presentations, and invited presentations. Since the 77th meeting, Springer has published the conference proceedings volume from this annual meeting to allow presenters to share their work and ideas with the wider research community, while still undergoing a thorough review process. This proceedings covers a diverse set of psychometric topics, including item response theory, Bayesian models, reliability, longitudinal measures, and cognitive diagnostic models.
