Wenn Daten hierarchisch strukturiert und Variablen latent sind, ist die Mehrebenen-Strukturgleichungsmodellierung (MSM) die ideale methodische Wahl. In unserem #GESISworkshop lernst du, MSM-Modelle zu spezifizieren, zu schätzen und zu interpretieren – praxisnah in R. ➡️ t1p.de/einf_mod_26 @gesis.org
