Thank you Fawad. Your videos are so helpful as I work through data analysis for my PhD over here in Australia. You are so kind to share all of your knowledge!
Very useful series for beginners👌👌. I've learned basic descriptive statistics from your earlier lecturers on regression, correlation, anova and many more. Your lectures are not only easy to understand but also very authentic. Thanks a lot sir.
Amazing video as usual. Could you please share with us the reference for the table of the Model measurements cut-off points that you shared in the video?
Very useful. Thank you Fawad. I have one problem, Once i want to run/calculate the model, i receive the message "2 unnamed variables" how to solve these? thanks.
@@researchwithfawad sorry Fawad, I have five (5) main variables and sub variables for each variable. My QN. In testing CFA, can I use first order? Or its important to use 2nd order? thanks.
@@researchwithfawad Many thanks, now that we are having this conversation I would like to benefit some more from your expertise. I'm sure others will benefit too. I'm actually conducting research on social media, more specifically on how online popularity is related with self-esteem. I'm measuring popularity simply as "the number of followers or subscribers". Based on the data I've obtained, I have devised 10 groups for categorizing my data as follows: Group 1 = 1 - 5000 , Group 2= 5001-10K, Group 3 = 10,001-15K Group 4 = 15,001-20K Group 5 = 20,001-25K Group 6 = 25,001-30K Group 7 = 30,001 - 35K Group 8 = 35,001 - 40K Group 9 = 40,001 - 45 K and Group 10 = 45K or above The majority of the respondents fall in group 1 and 2, some fall in 3 and 4, while some fall in 9 and 10. My question is, how do I label them while entering my data in the SPSS as there are no responses for group 5, 6, 7, 8? Should I label the data all the way from 1 to 10 irrespective of the missing groups? or should I label group 9 and 10 as 5 and 6 to maintain continuity (1,2,3,4,5,6) in the SPSS labelling? Sorry for a long, boring comment, but would greatly appreciate your help here. Best!
Hello Fawad, thanks for a great video. Can you suggest why one of the items is showing negative loading in SmartPLS like -0.512. However, the same factor is showing positive loading like 0.213 in AMOS. If I have the scale, how can I be sure if an item is reverse coded?
Pleasure. I am glad you liked it. Please check the item with other items and also the source. If lets say out of 5 items four have one direction and 1 has another, then that one is reverse and should be reverse coded.
Asslamualaikum. I am learning a lot from these video. Thanks a lot. Can you please provide a link of your dataset ? So I can check my result with yours to verify what I am doing is correct or not
Thank you. Can you guide me is some model fit indices are good and some like GFI are not in acceptable range. they are between 0.7 to 0.8. What should I do. Can u still use this model
@ fawad sir on how many responses we can conduct cfa my smaple size is 330 how many responses should i take for that and one thing more if we have 2moderators. Gender and age should we also include them in cfa model
Hello Dr Fawad, greetings, I am using AMOS 24, and in output window model fit, I am unable to find RMR and GFI, can you please confirm how to turn on these outputs?
What is higher order model, first order model and second order model.what is difference between these three. How to find ave , Cr and discriminant validity of single construct.
These concepts have been discussed in detail in context of SMART-PLS. However, the definitions remain the same for any software. As for how they are used in AMOS, the concepts will be discussed in coming lectures. You can refer to Smart-PLS playlist to further understand these concepts.

@@researchwithfawad sir I totally understand these concepts by watching ur lectures on smart pls. But in the amos I don’t know how to find ave and other things as I write in my previous message . I hv to understand many things related to amos . In sha Allah by your upcoming lectures on amos I hope I will understand amos completely. Thankyou sir
Dont Worry, inshaa allah. Those lectures are in process. I hope to upload at least 3-4 lectures every week. I hope you will have a great learning experience. Also please keep sharing and circulating the videos in your research circle.
Sir, can I get the data file you've used in this tutorial for practice purpose? as I'm totally new in research and analysis so it would be really helpful for me to practice with something familiar first and then continue with my own research.
Dr Fawad, thank you for the input, i would like to seek your advice if we were to run CFA on likert scale data. Is it necessary for me to have the dependent data as well? i measure the independent data (5 construct) to indicate it has impact on the defendant data....

Glad to hear that. I am happy to hear that the videos are helpful.
very helpful and informative lecture series, thankyou very much
You are most welcome. Do Share in your research circle.
Well explained thank you prof.

@@researchwithfawad thanks Fawad.
Do you have the pdf version of it to share with us?
Very useful. Thank you Fawad. I have one problem, Once i want to run/calculate the model, i receive the message "2 unnamed variables" how to solve these? thanks.
Thanks. I am glad you liked it. Two objects in your model are not named. Check in the plugins menu and click Name Unobserved Variables.
@@researchwithfawad Thanks Fawad for your support. Its works perfectly
@@researchwithfawad sorry Fawad, I have five (5) main variables and sub variables for each variable. My QN. In testing CFA, can I use first order? Or its important to use 2nd order? thanks.
Excellent lecture, just one question: Where do you get your data from? Does it have to be an Excel or an SPSS file? Please guide.
Thanks. I am glad you liked it. AMOS can import data in both XL and SPSS format

Thanks. I am glad you liked it. I am afraid this data is still being used for research papers.
It's ok.. 🙂..Again.. Thanks a lot
Thank you. Can you guide me is some model fit indices are good and some like GFI are not in acceptable range. they are between 0.7 to 0.8. What should I do. Can u still use this model
Pleasure. You may only report CMIN/df, CFI, TLI, SRMR, and RMSEA.
@ fawad sir on how many responses we can conduct cfa my smaple size is 330 how many responses should i take for that and one thing more if we have 2moderators. Gender and age should we also include them in cfa model
Sample size is fine. Do not include demographic variables in measurement model evaluation.
Hello Dr Fawad, greetings, I am using AMOS 24, and in output window model fit, I am unable to find RMR and GFI, can you please confirm how to turn on these outputs?
If you have missing values ajd you are estimating means and intercepts. The RMR and GFI will not be available

Hi! What’s the mean of ‘Amos does not have permission to write in that directory’. What should I do?
You may be saving AMOS files in a folder that you do not have permission to add files to. Change the directory
@@researchwithfawad thank you, but I dont know how to do :(
Save the file in any other folder than you are trying to on your system.

If you have a DV in the study, you should have it in CFA
