Hi Jon,
This is great, a while back I suggested on the devcentral site, about an RSS metadata link for when either updates or new modules are released specifically, but I've heard nothing since I for one feel it would be a very useful, is this something that SPSS are looking into?

In reply to this post by Peck, Jon
I have been beset by data sets in the past year where there have been variable number of measures per person (literally ranging from 20 to 500) over variable number of days (from 1 to 100) for physiological and self-report measures.....I have employed certain modeling approaches such as multilevel modeling nesting occasion within individual but even when I have used different types of error structures (e.g., AR1) I still have had the hunch I haven't optimally captured the differences in interindividual trajectories. I have discussed with others options such as spectral analysis but SPSS can only handle univariate time series...and I read of one article in Psychometrika that did use WINBUGS to handle such a model.
That being said, I was talking to a statistician today and he informed me he has fit such a model via Harmonic Regression which apparently per http://www.biostat.wustl.edu/archives/html/s-news/1998-03/msg00080.html is as follows: "Harmonic regression (aka trigonometric regression, cosinor regression) is a linear regression model in which the predictor variables are trigonometric functions of a single variable, usually a time-related variable. Harmonic regression is used in modelling biological phenomena, which tends to exhibit periodic rhythms." Does anyone know is this something that can be fit in SPSS using the NLR option?..I was told today it can be fit in S-plus or R.......and has anyone had experience using Harmonic Regression for models when you have varying number of measures and are also interested in comparing groups (exp. vs control)............ thank you.......dale Dale Glaser, Ph.D. Principal--Glaser Consulting Lecturer/Adjunct Faculty--SDSU/USD/AIU President-Elect, San Diego Chapter of American Statistical Association 3115 4th Avenue San Diego, CA 92103 phone: 619-220-0602 fax: 619-220-0412 email: [hidden email] website: www.glaserconsult.com |
