本文敘述線性結構模式之理論基礎及應用在教育研究上的可能性(可研究一些無法測量之抽象概念)。也提出一些在應用過程中所可能遭遇的問題(諸如參數估計、多共線性、模式適合度指標、及參數值不正定等)並建議解決之道。期望該方法能在教育研究上加以推廣應用。

　　　　　This article introduces the theoretical foundation of the linear structural model (Linear Structural Relations) and its applicability to educational research, specifically to the study of unmeasurable concepts. Some problems such as the problem of the estimation of parameters, the problem of multicollinearity, goodness of fit index, and non-positive-definite parameters, and their possible ways of solution were discussed. It is hoped that this article can contribute to extensive application of the Linear Structural Model in educational research.
