Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

In the past two decades there have been considerable advances in latent variable modeling techniques over the last two decades, including advances in longitudinal and mixture models with the focus on seeking true population heterogeneity. The five papers in this symposium cover a range of modeling extensions, applications, and simulation work with the common theme of better understanding true population heterogeneity through mixture modeling.
