Historically, it has been easier to describe differences between groups of people, rather than describe the dynamic ways that people...
This is an introduction to dynamical systems ideas. Dynamical systems are mathematical models of one or more constructs that change...
This chapter introduces one approach to describing constructs that consist of easily reversed, short–term changes — data that is often...
Time is unlike any other variable. This chapter considers the difference in perspectives offered by discrete-time and continuous-time approached to...
Stochastic differential equation (SDE) models are a promising method for modeling intraindividual change and variability. This method uses structural equation...
The relationship between global emotion control beliefs and daily affect reports across 56 days were assessed in a sample of...
Intraindividual measures, such as intraindividual standard deviation or coefficient of variation, are incomplete representations variability. Studying variability can be made...
Methods for fitting the damped linear oscillator model using differential equation modeling can yield biased parameter estimates when applied to...
Resilience is often considered both a trait and a process. The current study proposes a new way to conceptualize resilience-as-process...
A wide variety of models can be understood in terms of the level, velocity, and acceleration of constructs: the zeroth,...
