| Abstract | ||
| Air quality is considered one of the vital topics because it has a direct relationship to the health of the individual, which affects the sustainable development and public health of individuals within the country. Therefore, the study identified the relationship between the standard air pollutants represented in the pollutants(suspended particles, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide gas and ozone gas, sulfur dioxide gas during the period from 1/1/2023 to 31/12/2024 , and built a model capable of explaining and interpreting these causal relationships and determining the direct and indirect effects on air quality in the study area and arranging them according to the degree of impact. This is what distinguishes the method of path analysis from others, considering the nature of the study area and the nature of the data used in the study. The model was built in several steps, including building a conception of the model, arranging the relationships between the dependent variables and the independent variable, drawing a diagram to clarify the path of relations between them, testing good conformance through several indicators, and analyzing and interpreting the results reached. Many programs were used to help the researcher with the effects of modeling, such as SPSS, Amos program for data analysis and extracting the proposed causal model. | ||
