SEM - HANDS-ON

Please run the SEM model described in the figure below using the enclosed dataset (NPCDATA.SAV).

In 1999, NPC Research Inc. conducted a school survey of over 2,000 students in Oregon. The survey included questions about drug and alcohol use, and also questions about the student's perceptions of his or her neighborhood. Responses to the following items were on a 4-point scale (0=NO! 1=no 2=yes 4=YES!).

VARIABLE	ITEM
CRIME	How much does "crime" and/or "drug selling" describe your neighborhood?
FIGHTS	How much does "fights" describe your neighborhood?
ABANDON	How much does "lots of empty or abandoned buildings" describe your neighborhood?
GRAFITTI	How much does "lots of graffiti" describe your neighborhood?
GETOUT	I'd like to get out of my neighborhood.
INANDOUT	People move in and out of my neighborhood.

Here is the data in SPSS format.

1. Construct and estimate the model in AMOS.

2. What are the fit indices? Are they good?

3. What are the path coefficients between latent variables? Are they significant?

4. What is the explained variance in the endogenous constructs? (those constructs which have at least one predictor)?

5. Draw a diagram of the model with the path coefficients and explained variances included.

6. What is the highest modification index? What does it tell us?

• The paper is usually between 1 and 3 pages long.

Eight Assignment Expectations

1. Able to run SEM procedures in AMOS.

2. Able to read SEM results in AMOS.
