LISREL for Windows

LISREL for Windows - A brief overview

During the last forty-five years,the LISREL model, methods and software have become synonymous with structural equation modeling (SEM). SEM allows researchers in the social sciences, management sciences, behavioral sciences, biological sciences, educational sciences and other fields to empirically assess their theories. These theories are usually formulated as theoretical models for observed and latent (unobservable) variables. If data are collected for the observed variables of the theoretical model, the LISREL program can be used to fit the model to the data.

 the LISREL model, methods and software have become synonymous with structural equation modeling (SEM). Today, however, LISREL is no longer limited to SEM. LISREL 11 includes the 64-bit statistical applications LISREL, PRELIS, MULTILEV, SURVEYGLIM and MAPGLIM.

LISREL for structural equation modeling.

PRELIS for data manipulations and basic statistical analyses.

MULTILEV for hierarchical linear and non-linear modeling.

SURVEYGLIM for generalized linear modeling.

MAPGLIM for generalized linear modeling for multilevel data.

LISREL

LISREL is a 64-bit application for standard and multilevel structural equation modeling. These methods are available for the complete and incomplete complex survey data on categorical and continuous variables as well as complete and incomplete simple random sample data on categorical and continuous variables.

PRELIS

PRELIS is a 64-bit application for data manipulation, data transformation, data generation, computing moment matrices, computing estimated asymptotic covariance matrices of sample moments, imputation by matching, multiple imputation, multiple linear regression, logistic regression, univariate and multivariate censored regression, and ML and MINRES exploratory factor analysis.

MULTILEV

MULTILEV is a 64-bit application that fits multilevel linear and nonlinear models to multilevel data from simple random and complex survey designs. It allows for models with continuous and categorical response variables.

SURVEYGLIM

SURVEYGLIM is a 64-bit application that fits Generalized LInear Models (GLIMs) to data from simple random and complex survey designs. Models for the Multinomial, Bernoulli, Binomial, Negative Binomial, Poisson, Normal, Gamma, and Inverse Gaussian sampling distributions are available.

MGLIM

MGLIM is a 64-bit application that uses adaptive quadrature to fit generalized linear models with categorical, count and non-normally distributed outcome variables to multilevel data.

we have just released LISREL 11 in the SSI Live store.  The substantially upgraded new version marks the golden jubilee of a seminal development in the history of Structure Equation Modeling (SEM).  A little over a half century ago Professor Karl Jöreskog published a monograph in the Educational Testing Service (ETS) Research Bulletin series entitled A General Method for Estimating a Linear Structural Equation System, along with the LISREL software program.
