  <dc:title>A Tool for Sensitivity Analysis in Structural Equation Modeling</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package SEMsens version 1.5.5</dc:title>
  <dc:subject>CRAN Task View: Psychometrics (https://CRAN.R-project.org/view=Psychometrics)</dc:subject>
  <dc:description>Perform sensitivity analysis in structural equation modeling using 
    meta-heuristic optimization methods (e.g., ant colony optimization and others). 
    The references for the proposed methods are:

    We also thank Dr. Krzysztof Socha for sharing his research on ant colony optimization
    algorithm with continuous domains and associated R code,
    which provided the base for the development of this package.</dc:description>
