Rao's polynomial growth curve model for unequal-time intervals: a menu-driven GAUSS program.
For lack of alternatives, longitudinal data are often analyzed with cross-sectional statistical methods, for instance, t-tests, ANOVA and ordinary least-squares regression. Appropriate statistical software has been generally unavailable to investigators using serial records to study growth and development or treatment effects. In an earlier paper (Schneiderman and Kowalski, Am. J. Phys. Anthrop...
متن کاملA PC program for growth prediction in the context of Rao's polynomial growth curve model.
We consider the problem of growth prediction in the context of Rao's [1] one-sample polynomial growth curve model and provide a PC program, written in GAUSS, to perform the associated computations. Specifically, the problem considered is that of estimating the value of the measurement under consideration for a "new" individual at the Tth time point given measurements on that individual at T-1 p...
متن کاملPC program for growth prediction in the two-stage polynomial growth curve model.
We consider the problem of growth prediction in the context of the two-stage (or random coefficients) one-sample polynomial growth curve model and provide a PC program, written in GAUSS386i, to perform the associated computations. The problem considered is that of estimating the value of the measurement under consideration for a 'new' individual at the Tth time point given measurements on that ...
متن کاملA GAUSS program for computing the Foulkes-Davis tracking index for polynomial growth curves.
We have previously published a GAUSS program for computing the Foulkes-Davis tracking index, gamma, from a one-sample longitudinal data set when no assumptions were made concerning the structure of the individual growth curves (Schneiderman et al., Am J Hum Biol, 4 (1992) 417-420). In this paper we consider the computation of the Foulkes-Davis index assuming that each individual growth curve ma...
متن کاملPC program extending the two-stage polynomial growth curve model to allow missing data.
A stand-alone, menu-driven PC program, written in GAUSS386i, extending the analysis of one-sample longitudinal data sets satisfying the two-stage polynomial growth curve model (Ten Have et al., Am J Hum Biol, 3 (1991) 269-279) to allow missing data is described, illustrated and made available to interested readers. The method and the program are illustrated using data previously analyzed by the...
