Learn how to prepare, visualise and model longitudinal data in R. The course covers the three fundamental frameworks for analysing longitudinal data: multilevel modelling, structural equation modelling and event history analysis. Each day combines a lecture, a hands-on practical with real-world data and a recap of the solutions, with time to discuss how to apply the methods in your own research.
