Using Mixed-Effects Structural Equation Models to Study Student Academic Development.

Peer reviewed

Pike, Gary R. – Review of Higher Education, 1992

A study at the University of Tennessee Knoxville used mixed-effect structural equation models incorporating latent variables as an alternative to conventional methods of analyzing college students' (n=722) first-year-to-senior academic gains. Results indicate, contrary to previous analysis, that coursework and student characteristics interact to…

Using Structural Equation Models with Latent Variables to Study Student Growth and Development.

Peer reviewed

Pike, Gary R. – Research in Higher Education, 1991

Analysis of data on freshman-to-senior developmental gains in 722 University of Tennessee-Knoxville students provides evidence of the advantages of structural equation modeling with latent variables and suggests that the group differences identified by traditional analysis of variance and covariance techniques may be an artifact of measurement…
