Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) has long been used in social work research, but the writing on the topic is typically fragmented and highly technical. This pocket guide fills a major gap in the literature by providing social work researchers and doctoral students with an accessible synthesis. The authors demonstrate two SEM programs with distinct user interfaces and capabilities (Amos and Mplus) with enough specificity that readers can conduct their own analyses without consulting additional resources. Examples from social work literature highlight best practices for the specification, estimation, interpretation, and modification of structural equation models. Unlike most sources on SEM, this book provides clear guidelines on how to evaluate SEM output and how to proceed when model fit is not acceptable.

A revelatory exploration of how a "theory of everything" depends upon our understanding of the human mind. The whole goal of physics is to explain what we observe. For centuries, physicists believed that observations yielded faithful representations of what is out there. But when they began to study the subatomic realm, they found that observation often interferes with what is being observed-that the act of seeing changes what we see. The same is true of cosmology: our view of the universe is inevitably distorted by observation bias. And so whether they’re studying subatomic particles or galaxies, physicists must first explain consciousness-and for that they must turn to neuroscientists and philosophers of mind. Neuroscientists have painstakingly built up an understanding of the structure of the brain.

Solving Polynomial Equation Systems II Macaulay’s Paradigm and Gröbner Technology


Free Download Teo Mora, "Solving Polynomial Equation Systems II: Macaulay’s Paradigm and Gröbner Technology"
English | 2005 | pages: 786 | ISBN: 0521811562 | PDF | 4,3 mb
A complete survey of Gröbner bases and their applications, this book will be essential for all workers in commutative algebra, computational algebra and algebraic geometry. The second volume of the treatise focuses on Buchberger theory and its application to the algorithmic view of commutative algebra. In distinction to other works, the presentation is based on the intrinsic linear algebra structure of Gröbner bases, making this a state-of-the-art reference on issues of implementation.
