Latent change score models (LCSMs) proposed by McArdle (McArdle, 2000, 2009; McArdle & Nesselroade, 1994) offer a powerful tool for longitudinal data analysis. They are becoming increasingly popular in social and behavioral research (e.g., Gerstorf et al., 2007; Ghisletta & Lindenberger, 2005; King et al., 2006; Raz et al., 2008). Although…

Growth curve models are widely used for investigating growth and change phenomena. Many studies in social and behavioral sciences have demonstrated that data without any outlying observation are rather an exception, especially for data collected longitudinally. Ignoring the existence of outlying observations may lead to inaccurate or even…

Wang, Lijuan; Zhang, Zhiyong; McArdle, John J.; Salthouse, Timothy A. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 2008
Score limitation at the top of a scale is commonly termed "ceiling effect." Ceiling effects can lead to serious artifactual parameter estimates in most data analysis. This study examines the consequences of ceiling effects in longitudinal data analysis and investigates several methods of dealing with ceiling effects through Monte Carlo simulations…
