    In addition to “sem” and “OpenMx”, the list of R packages should also comprise the “lavaan” package by Yves Rosseel which was recently published in the Journal of Statistical Software (http://www.jstatsoft.org/v48/i02/). Also, for PLS path modeling of SEMs, the “semPLS” package of Armin Monecke and Fritz Leisch may be of interest (http://www.jstatsoft.org/v48/i03/). The CRAN task view on Psychometrics maintained by Patrick Mair (http://CRAN.R-project.org/view=Psychometrics) contains useful further pointers on R packages complementing the R toolbox for SEMs.

    • Thank you so much for your comments.

      I have added semPLS package and CRAN task view on “Psychometrics in Structural Equation Models, Factor Analysis, PCA” into the list on another post on R packages for Structural Equation Model

  2. I every time spent my half an hour to read this web site’s
    articles or reviews daily along with a mug of coffee.
