Bayesian Inference of Dynamic Mediation Models for Longitudinal Data
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Saijun Zhao; Zhiyong Zhang; Hong Zhang – Grantee Submission, 2024
Mediation analysis is widely applied in various fields of science, such as psychology, epidemiology, and sociology. In practice, many psychological and behavioral phenomena are dynamic, and the corresponding mediation effects are expected to change over time. However, most existing mediation methods assume a static mediation effect over time,…

Modeling Data with Measurement Errors but without Predefined Metrics: Fact versus Fallacy
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Ke-Hai Yuan; Zhiyong Zhang – Grantee Submission, 2024
Data in social and behavioral sciences typically contain measurement errors and also do not have predefined metrics. Structural equation modeling (SEM) is commonly used to analyze such data. This article discuss issues in latent-variable modeling as compared to regression analysis with composite-scores. Via logical reasoning and analytical results…
