netSEM: Network Structural Equation Modeling

The network structural equation modeling conducts a network statistical analysis on a data frame of coincident observations of multiple continuous variables [1]. It builds a pathway model by exploring a pool of domain knowledge guided candidate statistical relationships between each of the variable pairs, selecting the 'best fit' on the basis of a specific criteria such as adjusted r-squared value. This material is based upon work supported by the U.S. National Science Foundation Award EEC-2052776 and EEC-2052662 for the MDS-Rely IUCRC Center, under the NSF Solicitation: NSF 20-570 Industry-University Cooperative Research Centers Program [1] Bruckman, Laura S., Nicholas R.
