So, a thread about how I have learned #SEM in #R as a #PhD student in #StatisticalGenetics.

I’ve heard SEM be described as a “system of regressions”, but in addition to observed variables, we also have latent/unobserved variables.

We can represent these variables in a path diagram (lavaan.org) :
Path diagram of a structural equation model with three latent variables called ind60, dem60, and dem65. ind60 has three indicators, dem60 and dem65 each have four. dem65 is regressed on dem60 and ind60. dem60 is regressed on ind60.

📣📣📣 (one for each new paper from the lab😀): Within ~1 week we had 3 papers published (two in the same day!), each took years... This calls for a quick tweetorial to explain why these may be interesting for you if you are into #RNA processing ( #Splicing #APA #UTR #rG4) with #AI #StatisticalGenetics.

I want to highlight a cool website by Hermine Maes: hermine-maes.squarespace.com. She has shared code for many models used in #StatisticalGenetics.

Thank you for reading my (short) overview of SEM and how to learn it - please ask away & let me know about your experience with #lavaan or #OpenMx 😀
