Psychological Bulletin1988, Vol. 103, No. 3,411-423 Copyright 1988 by the American Psychological Association, $ Equation Modeling in Practice: A Reviewand Recommended Two-Step ApproachJames C. AndersonJ. L. Kellogg Graduate School of ManagementNorthwestern UniversityDavid W. GerbingDepartment of ManagementPortland State UniversityIn this article, we provide guidance for substantive researchers on the use of Structural equationmodeling in practice for theory testing and development. We present a comprehensive, two-stepmodeling approach that employs a series of nested models and sequential chi-square difference discuss the comparative advantages of this approach over a one-step approach. Considerationsin specification, assessment of fit, and respecification of measurement models using confirmatoryfactor analysis are reviewed. As background to the two-step approach, the distinction between ex-ploratory and confirmatory analysis, the distinction between complementary approaches for theorytesting versus predictive application, and some developments in estimation methods also are use of Structural Equation Modeling has beengrowing in psychology and the social sciences.
412 JAMES C. ANDERSON AND DAVID W. GERBING sition" (p. 2). Rather than as a strict dichotomy, then, the distinc-tion in practice between exploratory and confirmatory analysis can be thought of as that of an ordered progression. Factor analysis can be used to illustrate this progression. An exploratory factor analysis in which there is no prior ...
