Effect Analysis in Structural Equation Models

Extensions and Simplified Methods of Computation

York University, Toronto

One of the great virtues of structural equation models is that they permit the quantification of causal and noncausal sources of statistical relationship. The present article discusses efficient matrix methods of computation for effect decomposition and extends these methods to models with unstandardized variables and to nonrecursive models. An appendix includes a computer program, written in APL, which implements the techniques described in the article.
