Growth mixture modeling in AMOS 18?

Hello everyone,

I wonder if it is possible to conduct growth mixture modeling in AMOS
18? According to Duncan, Duncan & Strycker (2006) and McArdle (2009) this
only seems
possible in Mplus, but I wonder if things has changed with later
versions of AMOS?

I have longitudinal data and want to identify groups with different
growth trajecetories.

Thanks in advance

Martin,

It is possible to fit latent growth curve models in the current version of AMOS. The most recent edition of Barbara Byrne's book titled, "Structural Equation Modeling With Amos", has a chapter dedicated to this topic.

Latent growth curve modeling is not the same as finite mixture modeling. David Greenberg, Sociology Department. The latter can be done in Stata using the user-created fmm routine; in Latent Gold; and in SAS using PROC TRAJ. David Greenberg, Sociology Department, New York University

Re: Growth mixture modeling in AMOS 18?

Good point, David. The latest verseion of AMOS is capable of handling certain mixture models as well. See link below.
