　　報(bào)告內(nèi)容：
　　Social network data are increasingly collected in many fields of research, business, and government. For example, to study student behaviors, it is important to understand the context of behaviors because students are not independent entities but are typically connected with one another, which naturally leads to the collection and analysis of network data. This study proposes to combine structural equation modeling (SEM) techniques and data science methods to model network data. It tackles the complex problems of network data by treating them as new types of variables in SEM. We will show how to construct a SEM with networks and how to estimate such a model.
