Differential Effects of Individual Factors on the Developmental Pathways of Depression
This study used growth mixture modeling to investigate the developmental pathways of depressive symptoms across adolescence and emerging adulthood (ages 12-25 years) using a nationally representative sample (N = 20,394). Four unique non-linear trajectories were found: low-decreasing (normative), …

Biopsychosocial Models of the Development of Childhood Disruptive Behaviors
… CP, but not vice versa. Second, I apply growth mixture modeling to identify comorbid HAP-CP developmental trajectories, as well as their uniquely associated risk factors. Finally, I attempt to replicate a well-known candidate gene by environment interaction as a predictor of CP. …

A Longitudinal Approach to Understanding Individual Differences Affecting the Drinking Behavior Change Process
… a short outpatient intervention. Using a growth mixture modeling (GMM) analysis, the goal was to identify different outcome drinking trajectories and examine the relationship between problem severity levels, treatment modality (i.e. individual versus group format), and goal choice (i.e. …
