- Once the model is designed, the next step is to Calculate the estimates as shown in the following image. Click Calculate Estimates from the Toolbar.
Next,you will see the estimates (unstandardized) in the model
To show Standardized estimates in the model,Click Standardized Estimates from the Estimates window
