Constructing causal networks for facial packs

We constructed one physiological model and one psychological model for a set of experimental data to investigate variation of the effects among facial pack types of temporary facial pack application. The physiological model was built for the transitions of skin moisture and skin surface lipid using a Bayesian network. Results suggest the existence of some higher-order functional relation between them. The psychological model was built for the appearances of the packs using structural equation modeling. We assumed two latent factors-security and likeability-and obtained reasonable fit indices.
