Summer Institute on Research Methodology

Introductory and advanced courses offered by the College of Health and Human Sciences Methodology Core

Tuesday, July 7, 2009 9:00 AM - Friday, July 10, 2009 5:00 PM

Introductory and advanced courses are offered by the Methodology Core over a period of four days (one day – introductory course; three days – advanced course). The introductory course provides instruction in the use of Mplus. Participants are expected to be comfortable with the General Linear Model. The advanced course focuses on the analysis of change using Mplus and will assume prior experience with Mplus, which may be obtained in the introductory course. These two courses can be taken independently or combined. Applied examples are used throughout the workshops, with hands-on analysis experience. July 7: Introduction to Mplus (Alan Acock). Participants will learn how to use the Mplus software. July 8-10: Latent Growth Curve Modeling using Mplus (Alan Acock, Lesa Hoffman, Fuzhong Li). This workshop will introduce latent growth curve and longitudinal multilevel modeling using the Mplus software, and will extend to time-varying predictors, binary and count outcomes, and growth mixtures (i.e., group differences in trajectories).
