This five-hour workshop covers various topics in latent growth modeling for longitudinal data with continuous and categorical variables. Topics include:

  1. Growth modeling without covariates
  2. Growth modeling with time invariant and varying covariates
  3. Centering points
  4. Piecewise growth modeling
  5. Handling missing data
  6. Power analysis for a-priori sample size estimation

Examples will be demonstrated using both the Mplus and R software packages. Syntax and output will be provided for all examples covered in the workshop. Registration and payment can be made directly online. All prices are in Canadian dollars and are exclusive of tax (13%). We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Cheques and Email Transfers.

This workshop is for anyone interested in advancing their understanding of structural equation modeling. Participants are encouraged to have a working knowledge of multiple regression and an introductory understanding of structural equation model (see our Introductory Structural Equation Modeling workshop here).

No prior knowledge of R or Mplus is required.

A copy of Mplus or R is not required for this workshop. All examples For this workshop will be demonstrated with Mplus and R. Furthermore, we provide all syntax and output for each example to allow for participation without the use of any software.

Handout materials and datasets will be provided.
