CARMA Webcast on mixture modeling – Feb. 22

The Martha and Spencer Love School of Business will host the viewing of the following CARMA Consortium Webcasts on Friday, Feb. 22 at noon in KoBC 204:

“Growth Mixture Modeling” presented by Dr. Mo Wang (University of Florida)
Abstract: This presentation will introduce the growth mixture modeling (GMM) method for identifying and predicting unobserved subpopulations that correspond to different longitudinal change trajectories. It will provides a conceptual overview of the method, discuss the research utility via two research examples, and demonstrate the statistical procedure through an empirical illustration. At the end of the presentation, some general thoughts and cautions about the method will be shared.

The CARMA Consortium Webcast Program provides university faculty, graduate students and other researchers with advanced training in research methods and data analysis. For more information about CARMA and the Consortium Webcast Program, visit the CARMA website.
