DESCRIPTION:Summary\n\nThis course gives a hands on introduction to what 
 is possible in a latent variable analysis framework using Mplus. Buildin
 g up the different sides of latent variable modelling and structural equ
 ation modeling step by step\, eight different types of analysis are tack
 led.\n\nRegression\, Path Analysis\, Confirmatory Factor Analysis\, Item
  Response Theory\, Measurement modelling\, Latent Class Analysis\, Longi
 tudinal Analysis and lastly\, hybrids of these are all topics of the cou
 rse covered in lectures and practical analysis in Mplus.\n\nBringing you
 r own data and research questions is highly recommended!\n\nCourse objec
 tives:\nDistinguish and understand different types of latent variable an
 alysis\;\nLearn how to do basic and advanced structural equation modelli
 ng\;\nUnderstand how to combine different techniques in one model\; and\
 nLearn how to use Mplus\n\nCourse timetable\nDay one\nAfternoon - Regres
 sion\n\nDay two\nMorning - Path Analysis\nAfternoon - Confirmatory Facto
 r Analysis\n\nDay three\nMorning - Item Repsonse Theory\nAfternoon - Mea
 surement Modelling.\n\nDay four\nMorning - Latent Class Analysis\nAftern
 oon - Longitudinal Modelling\n\nDay five\nMorning - Model Building\n\nCo
 urse presenters\nThe course will be presented by Nick Shryane and Bram V
 anhoutte.\n\nPrior or recommended knowledge/reading/skills\nBasic statis
 tical knowledge (variance\, mean\, …) and experience in using regression
  models (linear and logistic)\nSome experience in working with syntax is
  helpful but not absolutely necessary.\n\nBooking\n\nBooking is now open
