{"product_id":"generalized-latent-variable-modeling-anders-skrondal-9781584880004","title":"Generalized Latent Variable Modeling: Multilevel, Longitudinal, and Structural Equation Models","description":"This book unifies and extends latent variable models, including multilevel or generalized linear mixed models, longitudinal or panel models, item response or factor models, latent class or finite mixture models, and structural equation models. Following a gentle introduction to latent variable modeling, the authors clearly explain and contrast a wide range of estimation and prediction methods from biostatistics, psychometrics, econometrics, and statistics. They present exciting and realistic applications that demonstrate how researchers can use latent variable modeling to solve concrete problems in areas as diverse as medicine, economics, and psychology. The examples considered include many nonstandard response types, such as ordinal, nominal, count, and survival data. Joint modeling of mixed responses, such as survival and longitudinal data, is also illustrated. Numerous displays, figures, and graphs make the text vivid and easy to read. \u003cp\u003eAbout the authors: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnders Skrondal\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor and Chair in Social Statistics, Department of Statistics, London School of Economics, UK \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSophia Rabe-Hesketh \u003c\/b\u003eis a Professor of Educational Statistics at the Graduate School of Education and Graduate Group in Biostatistics, University of California, Berkeley, USA.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anders Skrondal, Sophia Rabe-Hesketh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1584880007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781584880004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/11\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 522\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.54h x 6.58w x 1.26d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Anders Skrondal","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44129789477119,"sku":"9781584880004","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1ccdfdb3-3a93-4ff4-85bf-b1108edff818.jpg?v=1687465811","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/generalized-latent-variable-modeling-anders-skrondal-9781584880004","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
