We examined the selection of covariance structures and the Type I error rates of the Criterion Selector Akaike’s (Akaike’s Information Criteria, AIC) and the Correctly Identified Model (CIM). Data were analyzed with a split-plot design through the Monte ...

A power analysis of seven normality tests against the Ex-Gaussian distribution (EGd) is presented. The EGd is selected on the basis that it is a particularly well-suited distribution to accommodate positively skewed distributions such as those observed in ...

This study develops a general linear model intended for personality and attitude items with (approximately) continuous responses that is based on a double source of measurement error: items and persons. Two restricted sub-models are then obtained from the ...

Health researchers often use the life-course perspective, exploring how long-range experiences in one life domain may influence, and be influenced by, those in another. We develop a multiple-process latent transition model (MPLTM) to estimate changes in ...
