AN INTRODUCTION TO MEDIATION AND STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODELS WITH IBM SPSS AMOS
A one day workshop is provisionally planned to be held at the MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit on Friday 17th October 2025 led by Charles Dennis (University of Newcastle).

His main teaching and research area is (e-)retail and consumer behaviour. He has taught courses, given presentations and written papers based on his research using SPSS AMOS.
