Analysis of Longitudinal Data

·2001·Statistics for Psychologists

Abstract

Longitudinal data were introduced as a special case of repeated measures in \nChapter 5. Such data arise when subjects are measured on the same variable (or, \nin some cases, variables), on several different occasions. Because the repeated \nmeasures arise, in this case, solely from the passing of time, there is no possibility of randomizing the "occasions," and it is this that essentially differentiates \nlongitudinal data from other repeated measure situations arising in psychology, \nwhere the subjects are observed under different conditions, or combinations of \nconditions, which are usually given in different orders to different subjects. The \nspecial structure of longitudinal data makes the sphericity condition described in \nChapter 5, and methods that depend on it for their validity, very difficult to justify. \nWith longitudinal data it is very unlikely that the measurements taken close to \none another in time will have the same correlation as measurements made at more \nwidely spaced time intervals.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
