A Latent Curve Model with Structured Residuals (LCM-SR)

What is it about?

In psychology, one particularly vexing challenge is determining how to best model the prospective, reciprocal relations between 2 constructs as they developmentally unfold over time. Several analytic methods currently exist, however none clearly separate the between-person and within-person components of stability and change that are often hypothesized to exist. In this article we propose a novel extension of the multivariate latent curve model to allow for the disaggregation of these effects
