Spss vs Lisrel

lorenzo.avanzi
Dear all

I would ask for a problem that I encountered in my analyses.
I used SPSS to test the following longitudinal hypothesis:

Organizational Identification T1 --> (increase) Social Support --> (decrease)
Burnout T2

I controlled for Burnout T1, while Social Support is the standardized score
residual obtained by regressing Social Support T2 on Social Support T1.

I performed this analysis and I found a significant effect of Social Support
on Burnout T2. I performed these analyses using both SPSS (hierarchical
multiple regression analysis) and PROCESS macro by Hayes (2012).

Hovewer, I tried to confirm my hypothesis also using SEM (Lisrel; full
model),
but when I use SEM the path from Social Support to Burnout T2 was strongly not
significant.

How is this possible?
What could be the explanation?

Thank you very much,

Lorenzo

Re: Spss vs Lisrel

Swank, Paul R
It sounds as though you contolled for T1 burnout twice. Is this correct or have I misread your problem?
Did you mean that you controolled for T1 burnout "by" regressing T2 on T1?

Instead of manipulating the MACRO directly, why don't you install the custom dialog? This will ensure that you are not making any obvious errors. Moreover, he has made many advances over the years:
 
 
By the way, you can also assess for simple and multiple mediation using bootstrap methods offered in AMOS.
 
Best,

How do we know that you set up the LISREL code to be parallel to the Regressions and PROCESS analyses?
Verbal descriptions of what did and did not work are not typically useful in isolating discrepancies.
Maybe you should attach your outputs?

Dear All,

I attached the Lisrel Output

Note:

B_LAV2 = Burnout T2
RES_SUPP = standardized residual scores of Social Support (obtained by regressing T2
scores of the Social Support at T2 on the corresponding Social Support T1 scores)
IDORG = Organizational Identification
B_LAV1 = Burntout T1

TSE = Teacher Self-Efficacy as endogenous variable.

No, I have not checked for Burnout T1 twice.

I used a procedure proposed by Smith and Beaton (2008) to test a mediation with only two times. Following this procedure T1-T2 changes in Social Support (which represent in my hypothesis the "mediator") are measured as the residual scores obtained by regressing T2 scores of the Social Support on the corresponding T1 scores.

The mediation model that I postulated is:

Organizaitonal Identification measured at Time 1 --> Social Suppor (residual scores T1-T2) --> Burnout measured at Time 2; and I controlled for Burnout measured at Time 1.

You are missing some vital info!  The SPSS Runs and Process.
You really need to highlight the specific issue as well.
I am NOT going to swim through all that LISREL output and
try to correlate it to your issue!
Assume that I have about 5 minutes to contribute to your plight.
Streamline accordingly.

Dear,

I attached a new file.

At the beginning there is the output of Lisrel, while at the end there is the output of PROCESS
The lines to check are indicated by asterisks:

********************************************************************************

In Lisrel Beta from RES_SUPP to B_LAV2 is not significant (-0.01), while in Process is significant:

BETA        

              B_LAV2   RES_SUPP      IDORG     B_LAV1  
            --------   --------   --------   --------
 B_LAV2        - -      -0.01           0.06       0.82
                              (0.04)       (0.05)     (0.11)
                              -0.23         1.16       7.59
 
 RES_SUPP    - -        - -             0.28        - -
                                             (0.12)

You need to indicate why you think the LISREL and the SPSS should have anything in common considering you are using 27 vars in LISREL and only 5 or 6 in Process.
140 cases is REALLY TOO SMALL FOR YOUR LISREL MODEL!!!
No further comment!
