Multiple regression using MPLUS, importing complete dataset

This video demonstrates how to carry out a basic multiple regression analysis using MPLUS. I begin by demonstrating how to convert SPSS data into either a .csv or .dat file format that can be read by MPLUS (as data from SPSS cannot be read directly into the program). Next I discuss various commands (TITLE, DATA, VARIABLES, MODEL, and OUTPUT) and how to request basic regression results. This video is a preliminary step towards path analysis.
