Change is constant in everyday life. Infants crawl and then walk, children learn        to read and write, teenagers mature in myriad ways, the elderly become frail and        forgetful. Beyond these natural processes and events, external forces and        interventions instigate and disrupt change: test scores may rise after a coaching        course, drug abusers may remain abstinent after residential treatment. By charting        changes over time and investigating whether and when events occur, researchers        reveal the temporal rhythms of our lives. Applied Longitudinal Data Analysis is a        much-needed professional book for empirical researchers and graduate students in the        behavioral, social, and biomedical sciences. It offers the first accessible in-depth        presentation of two of today's most popular statistical methods: multilevel models        for individual change and hazard/survival models for event occurrence (in both        discrete- and continuous-time). Using clear, concise prose and real data sets from        published studies, the authors take you step by step through complete analyses, from        simple exploratory displays that reveal underlying patterns through sophisticated        specifications of complex statistical models.Applied Longitudinal Data Analysis        offers readers a private consultation session with internationally recognized        experts and represents a unique contribution to the literature on quantitative        empirical methods.Visit http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/examples/alda.htm for:DT        Downloadable data setsDT Library of computer programs in SAS, SPSS, Stata, HLM,        MLwiN, and moreDT Additional material for data analysis
