The website for IBM® SPSS® Amos states the software "enables you to specify, estimate, assess and present models to show hypothesized relationships among variables. The software lets you build models more accurately than with standard multivariate statistics techniques. Users can choose either the graphical user interface or non-graphical, programmatic interface."

SPSS Amos allows you to build attitudinal and behavioral models that reflect complex relationships. The software:

• Provides structural equation modeling (SEM)--that is easy to use and lets you easily compare, confirm and refine models.
• Uses Bayesian analysis--to improve estimates of model parameters.
• Offers various data imputation methods--to create different data sets.

SPSS AMOS 24 is currently available to CAS faculty and staff for testing, and should be available for student use in supported labs by the start of the Fall 2017 semester.

For in-depth information on the usage of SPSS, see the UNT Research and Statistical Support article.
