Abstract

The three objectives of this academic paper are (1) to explain the concepts of Ariyasacca 4 (the Four Noble Truths) and Structural Equation Model (SEM), (2) to explain the similarities and differences between Ariyasacca 4 and SEM, and (3) to propose the guidelines for applying Ariyasacca 4 and SEM in social science research. The main points in the article include the concepts of Ariyasacca 4 and SEM, the similarities and differences between Ariyasacca 4 and SEM, and the guidelines for applying Ariyasacca 4 and SEM in social science research. Ariyasacca 4 is a Buddhist principle that can be applied in educational research while SEM is an advanced statistical analysis technique. The two concepts are different but related in terms of cause-and-effect analysis that can be integrated and applied in the design of social science mixed-methods research.
