Testing full structural equation model using Lavaan (see linked text file under video description) Mike Crowson 2023-01-10 | This video demonstrates how to perform a path analysis using latent variables based on an example provided by Kline (2016) in his text, Principles and Practice of Structural Equation Modeling (4th ed). In this video, I begin by demonstrating how to create a full covariance matrix for a set of variables based on summary correlations and standard deviations provided by Kline (2016) in his example. Next, I demonstrate how to test a measurement model to assess how well the indicator variables are reflecting their latent constructs. Following, I test two full structural equation models, where proposed structural relations among the latent factors are specified.

Multiple linear regression using R studio (Aug 2022) Mike Crowson 2022-08-26 | This video provides a general overview of linear regression using R Studio, covering a variety of functions that you might use to obtain output of interest. I cover some basic functions for screening data and examining correlations among variables, the lm() function for performing the linear regression, and various functions for different diagnostics one might be interested in obtaining. The video is not designed to be an exhaustive or comprehensive overview of regression and all aspects of decision-making with regression.A copy of the data (referenced in the video) can be downloaded here: drive.google.com/file/d/1d3P2vxI7X1aSpB5uhQyHSD2dJZjvg6M_You can also download a supplemental Powerpoint here:drive.google.com/file/d/1P_jhZsfECVs-dXIDXbU-ASgBIMJfWjmP
Introduction to R for SPSS users: Setting up and managing dataframes (and a few extras) Mike Crowson 2022-07-01 | This video is designed to give SPSS users who are interested in learning R and very basic introduction to how to set up and manage dataframes. Although I typically import data from other programs (rather than setting them up in the fashion shown here), I also felt that this would provide SPSS users with a better sense of how data can be structured in R. Additionally, the video is intended to provide a very general orientation to the object-oriented language of R. In this video, I use RStudio for the illustrations, but the commands I provide in this video work with the basic R interface.You can download a copy of the text file I reference near the end of the video here: drive.google.com/file/d/1c-_3ZXCVQzlYA994DGOAq4rFE9-L78S7/view
Multiple regression using dummy coding in Stata (June 2022) Mike Crowson 2022-06-16 | This video demonstrates various methods for testing the effect of a categorical independent variable on the dependent variable in a multiple regression analysis using Stata. I focus mainly on the use of dummy coding and various options for obtaining regression results using dummy coded variables. I also spend time showing viewers how results obtained using dummy coding compare to ANOVA and ANCOVA output (also generated using Stata).

Determining number of factors during EFA using Maximum Likelihood factor analysis in SPSS Mike Crowson 2022-06-11 | In this video, I provide a demonstration of an approach (i.e., Maximum likelihood factor analysis) to aid you in making a decision regarding the number of factors that best account for the intercorrelations among your measured variables during factor analysis. In the video, I demonstrate a process of generating measures of model fit for one-, two-, three-, and four-factor models, including the chi-square goodness of fit test and the RMSEA (root mean square error of approximation).Some of the discussion points I raise are addressed in:Fabrigar, L. R., & Wegener, D. T. (2012). Exploratory factor analysis. Oxford University Press.Feel free to download a copy of the dataset here: drive.google.com/file/d/1xTOJl63NYRAljyUzKyQ0w1R8VNYgp1PxDuring the presentation, I use an Excel file to make certain calculations.

Polynomial regression with covariates in SPSS: Identifying and describing a quadratic relationship Mike Crowson 2022-05-10 | In this video, I walk you through an approach for identifying and describing a quadratic functional relationship between a focal independent variable and the dependent variable in a linear regression that includes covariates. I discuss identification of non-linearity using residuals plots and an approach for graphing a quadratic functional relationship between the IV and DV while holding the covariates constant at their means. The example is based around a discussion in Chapter 12 of Darlington & Hayes (2017) book: afhayes.com/regression-analysis-and-linear-models.htmlDownload a copy of the data used in the video here: drive.google.com/file/d/11LIpryp2MbGMG0C8aszUnjPM43sLcbdHSupplemental powerpoint: drive.google.com/file/d/1cDTTe7VfuzZVwMt4tq5IIb__djBquF26
