Summary
Nowadays, more and more information is available that can be studied and analyzed. Therefore, data analysis has become increasingly important within different scientific areas, especially within the Social and Health Sciences, as is the case of psychology and Neuropsychology.
Description
Traditionally, psychometrics has been used in psychology to offer reliability and validity (e.g. convergent validity) to psychological tests. With the development of Computer Science, data analysis tools have been created with greater power than the previous ones, as is the case of structural equation models (SEM). These tools are very useful for Psychology and neuropsychology since the questions or problems that arise in this science are very complex, with multiple variables that interact and relate to each other. SEM models have become an excellent tool in the creation and validation of tests.
