Basic and Advanced Bayesian Structural Equation Modeling introduces basic and advanced SEMs for analyzing various kinds of complex data, such as ordered and unordered categorical data, multilevel data, mixture data, longitudinal data, highly non-normal data, as well as some of their combinations. In addition, Bayesian semiparametric SEMs to capture the true distribution of explanatory latent variables are introduced, whilst SEM with a nonparametric structural equation to assess unspecified functional relationships among latent variables are also explored. Statistical methodologies are developed using the Bayesian approach giving reliable results for small samples and allowing the use of prior information leading to better statistical results. Estimates of the parameters and model comparison statistics are obtained via powerful Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods in statistical computing."--Publisher's website.0 aPrint version record. 0aBayesian statistical decision theory. 0aStructural equation modeling. 4aMathematics. 7aBayesian statistical decision theory.2fast0(OCoLC)fst00829019 7aStructural equation modeling.2fast0(OCoLC)fst01738928 4aElectronic books.1 aLee, Sik-Yum.08iPrint version:aSong, Xin-Yuan.tBasic and advanced Bayesian structural equation modeling.dChichester, West Sussex : John Wiley, 2012z9780470669525w(DLC)  2012012199w(OCoLC)853461614 0aWiley series in probability and statistics.40uhttp://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/book/10.1002/9781118358887zWiley Online Library  aEBL - Ebook LibrarybEBLBnEBL4034570  aEBL - Ebook LibrarybEBLBnEBL954614  aYBP Library ServicesbYANKn9571143  a92bDG1  c206017d206017
