Teste de teoria com modelos de equações estruturais

Objetivos

This course provides an introduction to Structural Equation Modelling (SEM), including the study of covariance-based methods (CBSEM) and the Partial Least Squares (PLS-SEM). The course also includes an approach to confirmatory factor analysis.

The applications will be supported by different software covering CBSEM and PLS.

The course is designed for non-experts in SEM and it will be focused on the understanding of SEM methodologies and their application as a research tool in business and social sciences. The main goal is to provide professionals, researchers and master or doctoral students with the modelling and data analysis tools necessary to test theories in the context of social sciences.
