HANDBOOK OF LONGITUDINAL RESEARCH: DESIGN, MEASUREMENT, AND ANALYSIS

This handbook is intended to provide a broad, interdisciplinary overview of longitudinal research designs and longitudinal data analysis. Many of the chapters are written at an introductory level, to introduce readers to topics with which they may not be familiar, but some topics, unavoidably, require a higher level of mathematical sophistication than others. Even for those relatively more mathematically challenging chapters, the hope is that the reader (even the novice reader) will gain enough insight into the application and potential of the analytical methods to better understand them when they are presented, and to determine whether they would be helpful in their own research.
