Resilience is often considered both a trait and a process. The current study proposes a new way to conceptualize resilience-as-process...
Many applied statistical problems address how change two variables are related. In this chapter derivatives are presented as a language...
Stochastic differential equation (SDE) models are a promising method for modeling intraindividual change and variability. This method uses structural equation...
Mediation models based on cross-sectional data can produce unexpected estimates, so much so that making longitudinal or causal inferences is...
Daily data from the NDHWB (n = 783; age range 37–90) were analyzed to produce ‘dynamic characteristic’ estimates of stress...
This is an introduction to dynamical systems ideas. Dynamical systems are mathematical models of one or more constructs that change...
The fitting of dynamical systems can be improved by estimating derivatives in a manner similar to that used to fit...
This chapter introduces one approach to describing constructs that consist of easily reversed, short–term changes — data that is often...
This article considers the estimation of damped linear oscillators with psychological data. The formulas of the new method presented in...
Using embedded and observed data matrices, a statistical approach to differential equation modeling is presented. This approach appears robust to...
