Several procedures proposed in the literature for the analysis of growth curves are reviewed. Particular attention is given to the current issues in this area to guide practitioners in the selection of the most appropriate methodology. (Author)

This paper presents two extensions of the full-rank multivariate linear model that are particularly useful in multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) and repeated measurements designs. After a review of the basic full-rank model, an extension is described which allows restrictions of a more general nature. This model is useful in the…

Simplicity and flexibility of the full rank linear model motivated this paper which introduces researchers to the theory necessary to understand the model and apply the theory in the analysis of some standard fixed effects experimental designs. The theory and examples should help researchers use the model as an experimental tool and a model for…
