خلاصه	Power analysis for SEM and other multivariate procedures determines the minimum sample size required to detect a model misfit of a specified magnitude with adequate probability. The dominant approach, introduced by MacCallum, Browne, and Sugawara in 1996, expresses effect size as the Root Mean Square Error of Approximation (RMSEA) and derives power from the noncentral chi-square distribution.	Structural equation modeling (SEM) is a comprehensive statistical framework combining path analysis (Sewall Wright, 1921) and confirmatory factor analysis to test complex causal models linking observed and latent variables. Formalized by Jöreskog (1973) with LISREL software, SEM enables simultaneous estimation of measurement relationships (how variables measure latent constructs) and structural relationships (how constructs influence outcomes), making it powerful for theory testing in psychology, epidemiology, organizational research, and health sciences where complex mediation, moderation, and latent processes require integrated analysis.
