State-Trace Analysis
About this ebook
The book begins by discussing the general framework for thinking about the relationships between independent variables, latent variables, and dependent variables. Subsequent chapters provide a software package that can be used to fit state-trace models as well as additional designs and examples. The book concludes with a discussion on potential extensions of STA and additional aspects of its application.
State-Trace Analysis will be of interest to researchers and graduate students working in experimental, applied, and cognitive psychology.
