The statistical approach, Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), investigates the relationships between independent and dependent variables (Ullman, 2006). Numerous software programs, such as AMOS, EQS, LISREL, and Mplus (Streiner, 2006), can be utilized for Structural Equation Modeling, which is often employed, particularly in the social sciences (Jin et al., 2021). This chapter explains the basic concepts of Structural Equation Modeling and application steps of Structural Equation Modeling in AMOS software to guide researchers.
