Abstract: Abstract Illustrate the similarities and differences between MDS growth analysis and growth mixture modeling approach using structural equation modeling. The key point is that MDS focuses on pattern with mean-level removed, while growth mixture modeling focuses on mean-level. Although the results from both approaches may be the same at times, two approaches may provide different aspects of growth or change. An example is provided to demonstrate these two approaches.
