Meta-analytic structural equation modeling (MASEM) is a powerful statistical technique that combines the strengths of meta-analysis and structural equation modeling (SEM). MASEM allows researchers to synthesize findings from multiple studies, test complex relationships among variables, and examine the effects of moderators and mediators. This book provides a comprehensive guide to MASEM, covering its theoretical foundations, methodological details, and practical applications. With step-by-step instructions and illustrative examples, readers will learn how to conduct MASEM analyses to synthesize research findings and test complex relationships among variables.
