๐New Pub in Structural Equation Modeling! What happens to model fit when assumptions fail in Bayesian latent mediation models? Haiyan Liu, Ihnwhi Heo @IhnwhiHeo, Aleksandr Ivanov @IvanovAlex21170, & Sarah Depaoli put it to the test. See what holds up! ๐ https://t.co/8kHz7hrgOV

Check out this new paper in @JAMAPediatrics that I did the analyses for!
A coordinated, community-wide intervention in five US counties significantly reduced both substantiated and unsubstantiated child sexual abuse (CSA) reports at the population level. https://t.co/nxdn5mImNy

๐จNew Pub! Led by Sarah Depaoli, with Fan Jia and Marieke Visser (our proud alum, now at @UNCG), our paper is out in Structural Equation Modeling! We show how small-variance priors in Bayesian SEM can uncover hidden effects in LCA models. Check it out: https://t.co/VnOt1DBVId

๐จCatch our grad student Yue Li at WPA @WPAwesternpsych! She's presenting a simulation study on multilevel mediation models with small samples, focusing on estimating indirect effects using ML and Bayesian methods. Into multilevel SEM, mediation, or missing data? Don't miss it!

๐ Proud moment! Quantitative Methods, Measurement, and Statistics (QMMS) group is part of this momentum. Our group is young but growing impressively, with a strong record of impactful pubs and methodological contributions to the field ๐ Big clap to all our amazing quant folks!
.@ucmerced's School of Social Sciences, Humanities and Arts made a splash in the latest rankings by U.S. News & World Report. The Political Science grad program tied for 52nd in the nation and the Psychological Sciences grad program tied for 95th. ๐ https://t.co/bOE7rYhiby
