how to create a acceptable pathdiagram。

In the procedure Proc CALIS, is there a decent way to create resonable pathdiagram for structural equations model.

I drew a diagram, but it looked so confusing!

pathdiagram

data and programe has attached as follows:

ods graphics on;
proc calis data=abort_miss  modification maxit=500000 method=ml PLOT=pathdiagram;
	lineqs
		V5 =         F3 + E5,

		V6 = LV6F1   F1 + E6,
		V7 = LV7F1   F1 + E7,

		V8 = LV8F4   F4 + E8,
		V9 =         F4 + E9,
		V10 = LV10F4   F4 + E10,
		
		V11 = LV11F2 F2 + E11,
		V12 = LV12F2 F2 + E12,
		V14 = LV14F2 F2 + E14,

		V13 =        F5 + E13,
		V15 = LV15F5 F5 + E15,
		V16 = LV16F5 F5 + E16,
		V17 = LV17F5 F5 + E17,
		V18 = LV18F5 F5 + E18,

		V22 =        F6 + E22,

		V23 =        F7 + E23,

You might want to use the PATHDIGRAM statement in PROC CALIS, which provides much more controls over the appearance of the path diagram.

SAS Help Center: PATHDIAGRAM Statement

And also check out this paper --

Hope this helps,
