Synopsis
Latent growth curve modeling (LGM)-a special case of confirmatory factor analysis designed to model change over time-is an indispensable and increasingly ubiquitous approach for modeling longitudinal data. This volume introduces LGM techniques to researchers, provides easy-to-follow, didactic examples of several common growth modeling approaches, and highlights recent advancements regarding the treatment of missing data, parameter estimation, and model fit. The book covers the basic linear LGM, and builds from there to describe more complex functional forms (e.g., polynomial latent curves), multivariate latent growth curves used to model simultaneous change in multiple variables, the inclusion of time-varying covariates, predictors of aspects of change, cohort-sequential designs, and multiple-group models. The authors also highlight approaches to dealing with missing data, different estimation methods, and incorporate discussion of model evaluation and comparison within the context of LGM. The models demonstrate how they may be applied to longitudinal data derived from the NICHD Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development (SECCYD).. Key Features * Provides easy-to-follow, didactic examples of several common growth modeling approaches * Highlights recent advancements regarding the treatment of missing data, parameter estimation, and model fit * Explains the commonalities and differences between latent growth model and multilevel modeling of repeated measures data * Covers the basic linear latent growth model, and builds from there to describe more complex functional forms such as polynomial latent curves, multivariate latent growth curves, time-varying covariates, predictors of aspects of change, cohort-sequential designs, and multiple-group models, Latent growth curve modeling (LGM)--a special case of confirmatory factor analysis designed to model change over time--is an indispensable and increasingly ubiquitous approach for modeling longitudinal data.

    Seller shipped out the DVDS of the TV series THE LOVE BOAT season two volume two really fast and it arrived earlier than listed to and well wrapped up for the trip by mail. The dvd set showed up in good condition just as they described it to be. The price was great and the seller did everything needed to make it a perfect seller and buy. Would buy again from them.

    I purchased this book at a very reasonable price, with more than reasonable international shipping costs. The image of the book for sale was purely indicative, but I nevertheless received it in the condition described (i.e., very good, with some reasonable signs of use). It was packaged reasonably well and shipped promptly. I have no complaints. I will purchase again if the opportunity arises. Thank you
