The Importance of Considering Alternative Structural Equation Models in Evaluation Research.

Hays, Ron D.; White, Ken

Evaluation and the Health Professions, v10 n1 p90-100 Mar 1987

An article was published in the December 1985 issue of this journal that used LISREL to investigate the relationship between family medicine residents' moral reasoning and their clinical performance (Sheehan). The data from that study are reanalyzed to illustrate the importance of considering alternative structural equation models in evaluation research. (Author/JAZ)
