[Presentation overview]
The structural equation models (SEM) platform continues to evolve into a more complete and powerful platform. Two key features in JMP Pro 17 are (1) a link between Factor Analysis and SEM to facilitate survey development, and (2) multiple-group analysis. We demonstrate these features with data inspired by Yamamura and Takehira (2017), where Japanese students were surveyed on their learning motivation. Attendees will learn to build surveys and use them to gain insights about subpopulations
The “structural equation models” (SEM) platform continues to evolve into a more complete and powerful platform. The major new features in JMP Pro 17 are (1) association of exploratory factor analysis with structural equation models (this feature is useful for designing questionnaire questions), and (2) multi-population analysis. Analysis. We will introduce these two functions based on the survey by Yamamura and Takehira (2017). Yamamura and Takehira (2017) is a study that investigated the learning motivation of university students in Japanese universities. In this talk, I will present a method for designing a survey and obtaining information about subpopulations from the survey.
