"This manual contains fifteen examples covering a wide range of typical LISREL models. The input and output for these models are discussed in detail. A number of computer exercises are also given" Preface
A highly readable introduction, Using LISREL for Structural Equation Modeling is for researchers and graduate students in the social sciences who want or need to use structural equation modeling techniques to answer substantive research questions. Author E. Kevin Kelloway provides an overview of structural equation modeling including the theory and logic of structural equation models (SEMs), assessing the "fit" of SEMs to the data, and implementation of SEMs in the LISREL environment. Specific applications of SEMs are considered, including confirmatory factor analysis, observed variable path analysis, and latent variable path analysis. A sample application including the source code, printout, and results section is presented for each type of analysis. Tricks of the trade for structural equation modeling are presented, including the use of single-indicator latent variable and reducing the cognitive complexity of models.
In short, it serves as companion to the LISREL 8 and PRELIS 2 manuals, and to any statistics textbook dealing with the topic of structural equation modelling.

During the last two decades, structural equation modeling (SEM) has emerged as a powerful multivariate data analysis tool in social science research settings, especially in the fields of sociology, psychology, and education. Although its roots can be traced back to the first half of this century, when Spearman (1904) developed factor analysis and Wright (1934) introduced path analysis, it was not until the 1970s that the works by Karl Joreskog and his associates (e. g. , Joreskog, 1977; Joreskog and Van Thillo, 1973) began to make general SEM techniques accessible to the social and behavioral science research communities. Today, with the development and increasing avail ability of SEM comput...
Hayduk is equally at ease explaining the simplest and most advanced applications of the program . . . Hayduk has written more than just a solid text for use in advanced graduate courses on statistical modeling. Those with a firm mathematical background who wish to learn about the approach, or those who know a little about the program and want to know more, will find this an excellent reference.
