Some New Results on Indirect Effects and Their Standard Errors in Covariance Structure Models

Abstract

I am grateful to Gerhard Arminger, Bruno A. Baldessari, William T. Bielby, George W. Bohrnstedt, Clifford C. Clogg, Hermann Flaschka, Edward H. Freeman, Kenneth J. Singleton, and Nancy B. Tuma for helpful advice. I am also grateful to Clement A. Stone for writing a computer program that provides the standard errors discussed in this chapter. This program can be obtained at nominal cost and is described in Stone (1985).
