Abstract

To path analysis (PA) of VSPOM structure for service plan in the Regional Health Service in Thailand.

Structural Equation Models used to explain this study. The samples were the following two groups: 1) 274 (90.13%) executives from 304; and 2) 664 (81.07%) executives and practitioners from 819, tools were 1) executives questionnaire and 2) a VSPO questionnaire, data were statistically analyzed by exploratory factor analysis (EFA), the second order confirmatory factor analysis (2nd Order CFA) and path analysis (PA).

The path model affecting the management of VSPOM structure is consistent with empirical data (χ2 = 0.272, DF = 19, CMIN/DF = 1.171, GFI = 0.993, AGFI = 0.980, ECVI = 0.166, Model AIC = 110.00, NFI = 0.996, CFI =.999, RMR = 0.005, and RMSEA = 0.016). The management of VSPOM structure was based on Setting (0.79), Man (0.32), and Material (1.00).

The variables in the both ten observed variables and four latent variables of the variable model had high construct validity by EFA, 2nd Order CFA and PA that can be used for development a VSPOM.
