• Sommario/riassunto: "Since the publication of the first edition, the authors have solicited feedback from both the instructors who use the book as a text for their courses as well as the researchers who use the book as a resource for their research. Thus, the improved Second Edition of Applied Longitudinal Analysis features many additions and revisions based on the feedback of readers, making it the go-to reference for applied use in public health, epidemiology, and pharmaceutical sciences"--
