AMOS

This powerful, easy-to-use structural equation modeling (SEM) software enables you to create more realistic models than if you used standard multivariate statistics or multiple regression models alone.
Using Amos, you specify, estimate, assess, and present your model in an intuitive path diagram to show hypothesized relationships among variables.

You can apply Amos to a variety of research applications:

• Psychology—Develop models (to understand how drug, clinical, and art therapies affect mood)
• Medical and healthcare research (best predicts a doctor’s support for prescribing generic drugs)
• Social sciences (to study how socioeconomic status, organizational membership, and other determinants influence differences in voting behavior and political engagement)
• Educational research (to evaluate training program outcomes to determine impact on classroom effectiveness)
• Market research (to model how customer behavior impacts new product sales)
• Institutional research (to study how work-related issues affect job satisfaction)
