Covering the measurement of individual differences in growth rates, the measurement of stage transitions, latent class and log-linear models, chi-square, and more, the book provides a means for developmental researchers to make use of categorical data.
- Measurement and repeated observations of categorical data
- Catastrophe theory
- Latent class and log-linear models
- Applications
Research scientists, academics, and graduate students in developmental psychology, gerontology, and statistics
