Latent Growth Curve Models with latent indicators
The course comprises of a couple of short lectures on the
basic theory behind Latent Growth Curve Modelling, teaching via examples worked through by
the trainer on real data sets which participants can follow, and exercises to practice the
skills just learned. You will also receive a 70-page coursebook containing all the notes and worked examples, providing an easy reference for the basics of
performing LGM in Mplus, and as a reminder for the techniques you have learned.
Course schedule:
The course will start at 9.15am, with a lunch break from 1pm-2pm, and short coffee breaks
at 11.30am and 3.30pm. It will finish at around 5.15pm, though I will be willing to stay on for a while after this to answer questions pertinent to participants' own data sets.
