This software contains a built-in proprietary database, where survey data can be stored. If data is collected for the observed variables of the theoretical model, this program can be used to fit the model to the data. This technology allows researchers to empirically assess their theories, which are usually formulated as theoretical models for observed and latent (unobservable) variables. Linear Structural Relationships (LISREL) for Windows is a statistical application used to fit structural and linear models to complex survey data and simple random data.
