The way statistics is used, and maybe even perceived, in psychology has drastically changed over the last few years; computationally as well as methodologically. R has taken the field of psychology by storm, to the point that it can now safely be considered the lingua franca for statistical data analysis in psychology. The goal of this book is to give the reader a starting point when analyzing data using a particular method, including advanced versions, and to hopefully motivate him or her to delve deeper into additional literature on the method. Beginning with one of the oldest psychometric model formulations, the true score model, Mair devotes the early chapters to exploring confirmatory factor analysis, modern test theory, and a sequence of multivariate exploratory method. Subsequent chapters present special techniques useful for modern psychological applications including correlation networks, sophisticated parametric clustering techniques, longitudinal measurements on a single participant, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data. In addition to using real-life data sets to demonstrate each method, the book also reports each method in three parts-- first describing when and why to apply it, then how to compute the method in R, and finally how to present, visualize, and interpret the results. Requiring a basic knowledge of statistical methods and R software, but written in a casual tone, this text is ideal for graduate students in psychology. Relevant courses include methods of scaling, latent variable modeling, psychometrics for graduate students in Psychology, and multivariate methods in the social sciences.Use R!,2197-5736StatisticsPsychometricsPsychology—MethodologyPsychometricsR (Computer program language)Statistics for Social Sciences, Humanities, Lawhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/S17040Psychometricshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y43000Psychological Methods/Evaluationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20040Statistics and Computing/Statistics Programshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/S12008Statistics.Psychometrics.Psychology—Methodology.Psychometrics.R (Computer program language)Statistics for Social Sciences, Humanities, Law.Psychometrics.Psychological Methods/Evaluation.Statistics and Computing/Statistics Programs.150.28553Mair Patrickauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut740687MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910300140003321Modern psychometrics with R1557815UNINA
