i am attaching a .csv file, and the associated code worked out in R Studio.
i used the lavaan and sem packages, and conducted it.
now, i wish to draw the SEM model, as is available in AMOS other packages
and how does one draw the covariance arrows in R.
ONE STATISTICS oriented question - how can one provide interpretation for
negative coefficients.
kindly guide.
thanks and regds,
