Описание: This bestselling text that has been popular with graduate students and researchers for providing an accessible guide to the application, interpretation, and pitfalls of structural equation modelling (SEM) is now in its second edition.
Описание: Helping students to successfully visualise SEM by drawing on the graphical interface of EQS and providing plenty of screenshots throughout, this book assumes no prior statistical knowledge and includes practical assistance to encourage students to feel confident about using SEM for their research project.
Описание: Structural Equation Modeling provides a conceptual and mathematical understanding of structural equation modelling, helping readers across disciplines understand how to test or validate theoretical models, and build relationships between observed variables.
Описание: You are welcome to Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) Made Easy for Business and Social Science Research Using SPSS and Amos. This book seeks to provide a simple practical guide to conducting quantitative data analysis. First, it presents an overview of quantitative research, by explaining different types of variables and the formulation and testing of hypotheses. Second, it presents the rubrics for designing quantitative questionnaires, explains sampling and illustrates how to determine sample size. Third, the book also explains descriptive statistics and how to conduct and present descriptive statistics in a research write-up. Fourth, it provides a step by step process to carry out exploratory factor analysis and procedures for interpreting related outputs from the statistical software package, SPSS. Fifth, it teaches how to establish reliability and validity in quantitative research. Finally, the book explains the basics of Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) and demonstrates the two-step approach to SEM analysis, the foundational concepts of measurement models, structural models, Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Path Analysis (PA). It also teaches how to run SEM analysis using Amos, and how to interpret the resulting output. This book is essential for anyone involved in business and social science research. Its purpose is not to create a
Описание: Evidence-Based Practice for Nurses: Appraisal and Application of Research, Fourth Edition is the definitive reference for transitioning research into nursing practice. The text is based on the innovation-decision process (IDP), and is shaped according to the five steps of the IDP: knowledge, persuasion, decision, implementation, and confirmation.

Описание: Multilevel Structural Equation Modeling by Bruno Castanho Silva, Constantin Manuel Bosancianu, and Levente Littvay serves as a minimally technical overview of multilevel structural equation modeling (MSEM) for applied researchers and advanced graduate students in the social sciences. As the first book of its kind, this title is an accessible, hands-on introduction for beginners of the topic. The authors predict a growth in this area, fueled by both data availability and also the availability of new and improved software to run these models. The applied approach, combined with a graphical presentation style and minimal reliance on complex matrix algebra guarantee that this volume will be useful to social science graduate students wanting to utilize such models.
Описание: The lack of congruence between theory and practice in business remains a widely discussed topic.

Описание: This book explains how to employ MASEM, the combination of meta-analysis (MA) and structural equation modelling (SEM). It shows how by using MASEM, a single model can be tested to explain the relationships between a set of variables in several studies.
Описание: The widespread adoption of information technologies (IT) characterising the recent competitive advantage scenario has been of great interest to researchers and practitioners. An important management question today is whether the anticipated economic benefits of information technology are being realised. There have been contradictory findings in the literature regarding its impact on firms productivity. While the debate known as the "IT productivity" paradox still endures, empirical studies have not shown consistent results to clarify how IT offers benefits to the owning firms. The primary research questions are whether and how IT capabilities can create competitive advantage and enhance firm performance through supply chain relationships (channel capabilities). A quantitative approach for data collection and analysis is used. Drawing on the resource based theory of the firm and transaction cost economic theory, this study developed and tested a model that proposes supply chain channel capabilities (information sharing, supply chain coordination and supply chain responsiveness) as higher organisational capabilities which mediate the effects of a firms IT capabilities on its market and financial performances. The findings of this study reveal that a firms inter-organisational information sharing mediates the influence of IT capabilities on firm performance. Practitioners and academics can benefit from the results of this study in terms of the ramifications for investment decisions as well as to benchmark where they stand with their IT in terms of potential for value creation, business support and improving their supply chain management practices.
Описание: Give students the knowledge and critical thinking capability to effectively select and apply theories. The premiere resource for nursing students completing major research or practice projects, Middle Range Theories: Application to Nursing Research and Practice, 5th Edition provides expert advice on selecting the appropriate theory for a nursing research project and developing the critical thinking skills needed to critique theories. Each theory chapter details examples of the theory’s use in research and its application to clinical practice, as well as critical thinking exercises and a variety of essential tools for the nurse researcher.
Authors Sandra J. Peterson and Timothy S. Bredow cover the most frequently cited middle range theories that can be applied to research and practice, organizing them into Physiological, Cognitive, Emotional, Social and Integrative categories that allow students to easily apply them to projects. Thoroughly updated and focused on helping students develop the project management skills essential to today’s nursing workforce, this Fifth Edition introduces a new chapter and helpful box feature that guides students through the planning, management and evaluation of projects.
NEW! Project management chapter familiarizes students with the process and tools for successful project planning, management and evaluation.
NEW! Project Management boxes demonstrate the effective application of theory to relevant research and practice projects.
UPDATED! Using Middle Range Theories in Researchoutlines the research process and provides examples of the use of theory in published research.
UPDATED! Using Middle Range Theories in Practice boxes help students apply theories to specific clinical scenarios.
Using Middle Range Theories in Projects boxes prepare students to effectively apply theories in graduate programs and clinical practice.
Critical Thinking Exercises at the end of each chapter engage readers in analysis of the theory and its application to practice.
Key Terms clarify chapter concepts at a glance.
