Abstract

This research article aims (1) to guidelines of using structural equation meta analysis to show the results of the study process. And (2) to summarize the steps to be used in social science for business administration research. Explain the important functions of structural equation metaphysics analysis from the research on documentary research methodology and propose a way to develop the use of statistical values to explain the analysis results. Starting from the process of comparing and collecting data from different research papers, the key steps in the application of Meta-analytic structural equation model. The aim is to determine what is found in common. The differences and relationships that emerge from research studies are defined as research in the field of social sciences and use data collection tools by processing evidence from data sources and related research from documentary research. Set the time range, show the independent variable studied significant performs a causal influence analysis. Findings are as follows: To summarize the results of the research study on the following
topics: (1) The magnitude of the influence that affects the variables as studied. Displays the
influence size and values. (2) The primary variables in this synthesis are variables expressed as
correlations and levels of correlation, indicating the measures that show the greatest correlation
coefficient and the knowledge from the analysis. (3) The relationship between the primary
variable and the variable of interest. Explaining the results of the study, it was found or not
that there was both direct and co-influence according to the level of statistical significance.
(4) Direct and indirect influence of primary variables to dependent variables by testing the
consistency between the theoretical model created by the researcher by causal influence analysis.
