Using two approaches - dispersion relations and the isobar model - we have analyzed recent high precision CLAS data on cross sections of {pi}{sup 0}, {pi}{sup +}, and {eta} electroproduction on protons, and the longitudinally polarized electron beam asymmetry for p(e{sup {yields}},e{sup '}p){pi}{sup 0} and p(e{sup {yields}},e{sup '}n){pi}{sup +}. The contributions of the resonances P{sub 33}(1232), P{sub 11}(1440), D{sub 13}(1520), and S{sub 11}(1535) to {pi} electroproduction and of S{sub 11}(1535) to {eta} electroproduction are found. The results obtained using the two approaches are in good agreement. There is also good agreement between amplitudes of the {gamma}*N{yields}S{sub 11}(1535) transition found in {pi} and {eta} electroproduction. For the first time accurate results are obtained for the longitudinal amplitudes of the P{sub 11}(1440), D{sub 13}(1520), and S{sub 11}(1535) electroexcitations on protons. A strong longitudinal response is found for the Roper resonance, which rules out presentation of this resonance as a hybrid state.
