Forum at Gaskination

I have set up a forum for any questions you may have that are directly relevant to examples, exercises, or assessments that are part of this course: Gaskination SEM Forum. You may, of course, also use the other sections of the forum to ask and explore general SEM issues and topics. I monitor this forum and answer as regularly as possible (usually within 24 hours). Others may also answer questions on the forum.

Email Dr. Gaskin

If all else fails, you are welcome to email me. I usually respond within 24 hours. Please do exhaust other resources before emailing me though. The StatWiki, Forum, YouTube channel, and the readings in this book are all excellent sources of knowledge, as are the references I provide at the top of the page for each topic. Please use my email sparingly. When you must email me, please keep your email concise and include any pictures of models (if relevant), rather than trying to describe your model in words. 

I do not offer technical support for downloading or installing the software used in this course. 

Personal Tutor

If you are struggling mightily and feel you need a personal tutor, you are welcome to email me to see if I have any current students who may be proficient enough to guide you. I cannot guarantee anyone will be available or willing to work with you. I also cannot guarantee their fees. This will need to be worked out on a case-by-case basis between you and your tutor. I will not receive any benefit from this arrangement. 

Translation

For those who speak English as a second language, MyEducator and YouTube have special features to help with translation. I show how to use them in this video:
