The first module will provide a basic introduction to R with RStudio (40 minutes), structural equation modelling in general, and using SEMinR (45 minutes).
Module 2
The second module will provide a deeper understanding of how to construct a model (40 minutes) and introduce estimation techniques using a pre-selected data set (45 minutes).
Module 3
