Please note: the lavaanIntroduction document is hardly useful to _learn_ about growth models (or any SEM model for that matter). It only explains how to fit them using the lavaan package. To learn about growth models, you may want to read any one of the books below: Latent Curve Models: A Structural Equation Perspective (Wiley Series in Probability and Statistics) by Kenneth A. Bollen and Patrick J. Curran (Hardcover - Dec 23, 2005) Latent Growth Curve Modeling (Quantitative Applications in the Social Sciences) by Dr. Kristopher J. Preacher, Aaron Lee Wichman, Robert Charles MacCallum and Dr. Nancy E. Briggs (Paperback - Jun 27, 2008) An Introduction to Latent Variable Growth Curve Modeling: Concepts, Issues, and Applications (Quantitative Methodology) (Quantitative Methodology Series) by Terry E. Duncan, Susan C. Duncan and Lisa A. Strycker (Paperback - May 23, 2006) Yves. ______________________________________________ [hidden email] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
