title: 'pwSEM: Piecewise Structural Equation Modelling'
version: 1.0.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.pwSEM
abstract: 'Conduct dsep tests (piecewise SEM) of a directed, or mixed, acyclic graph
  without latent variables (but possibly with implicitly marginalized or conditioned
  latent variables that create dependent errors) based on linear, generalized linear,
  or additive modelswith or without a nesting structure for the data. Also included
  are functions to do desp tests step-by-step,exploratory path analysis, and Monte
  Carlo X2 probabilities. This package accompanies Shipley, B, (2026).Cause and Correlation
  in Biology: A User''s Guide to Path Analysis, StructuralEquations and Causal Inference
  (3rd edition). Cambridge University Press.'
