Interrelations Among Models For The Analysis Of Moment Structures.

Factor analysis in several populations, covariance structure models, three-mode factor analysis, structural equation systems with measurement model, and analysis of covariance with measurement model are all shown to be specializations of a general moment structure model published previously in this journal. Some new structured linear models are also described; they may be considered either generalizations or special cases of existing models. Simple representations are developed for complex linear models, and some applications to behavioral data are cited.
