Stephen Tueller
Program: Quantitative
Research Interests:
I am a quantitative psychologist with interests in latent variable measurement models (factor analysis, item response), longitudinal data analysis (latent growth curves, growth mixture models), latent variable mixture models (factor mixture models, structural equation mixture models, structural equation growth mixture models), mixture models for parametric clustering, non-parametric clustering models (taxometric procedures, COSA), and measurement approaches to rater agreement. My substantive interests include health/medical research (hearing screening, opioid use, Alzheimer's diagnosis), program evaluation, and business dynamics modeling. I also consult on research design and data analysis in the fields of behavioral science, social science, health care, medicine, education, management, and marketing.
