Comparison of Event History Analysis and Latent Growth Modeling for College Student Perseverance
Event history analysis is the most prevalent modeling technique used to model event occurrence with longitudinal data (Cox & Oakes, 1984; Menard, 1991; Singer & Willett, 1993, 2003). An alternative is to model longitudinal data within the SEM framework, known as latent variable growth modeling …

Women's body image throughout the adult life span: Latent growth modeling and qualitative approaches
… preliminary analysis for quantitative data, latent growth model (LGM) analysis for hypothesis testing, and qualitative data analysis for open-ended responses. Increasing trajectories were found in women's perceptions about their actual body shape, ideal body shape, and actual/ideal body image …

A longitudinal latent growth modeling perspective on communication apprehension, self-perceived communication competence, and willingness to communicate
… conceptualizing and studying change by means of latent growth modeling, a powerful and versatile data analytic technique. Specifically, employing this methodology offered the opportunity to get detailed information about how changes in one construct are related to changes in the other two …

The consequences of ignoring assessment date heterogeneity within waves for latent growth models
In traditional latent growth modeling, researchers assume that assessment dates within waves from longitudinal studies are homogeneous, although they are nearly always heterogeneous. In this study, we present a pedagogical illustration of assessing the consequences of ignoring time-point …

Living On Borrowed Time: A Longitudinal Examination of a Time-Limited Housing Voucher Program
… living in poverty. Using Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM) the first analysis addresses what can be predictive of socioeconomic status for families. A second set of analyses were preformed, using both cross-lagged and latent growth modeling, to assess the interconnected nature of resilience …

Parallel Processes of Posttraumatic Stress and Metabolic Dysfunction: Long-Term Costs of Trauma on the Psychological and Physical Health of 9/11 Survivors
… sequelae of traumatic stress. Parallel process latent growth modeling wasapplied to longitudinal data collected from 35,788 9/11 survivors and used to model PTSD symptoms and MetC to determine how the development and course of one affect the other. A unidirectional relationship was found in …

The Prevalence of Depression and Its Impact on Employment Earnings among Canadian Labor Force Participants
… cohort design and longitudinal multi-level modeling, results suggested a crude, cumulative ten-year earnings loss of ~$71,000 CAD for working-aged women and ~$115,000 for working-aged men who experienced a MDE. My last study employed parallel latent growth modeling to quantify the number of …

The effects of affective variables and kanji growth on L1 Chinese JSL learners' kanji learning
… the effects of affective variables and kanji growth on kanji learning utilizing the self-determination theory (SDT; Deci & Ryan, 1985, 2002). L1 Chinese learners of Japanese as a second language (L2) responded to a questionnaire designed to measure eleven affective variables and took kanji …
