Longitudinal Studies01:26

Longitudinal Studies

656
Longitudinal studies are also widely used in other medical and social science fields. For instance, in cardiovascular research, they can monitor patients' health over decades to identify risk factors for heart disease, such as high cholesterol or smoking, and evaluate the long-term effectiveness of preventive measures. Similarly, in mental health studies, researchers might follow individuals from adolescence into adulthood to understand the development and progression of conditions like...

Mechanistic Models: Compartment Models in Individual and Population Analysis

321
Mechanistic models are utilized in individual analysis using single-source data, but imperfections arise due to data collection errors, preventing perfect prediction of observed data. The mathematical equation involves known values (Xi), observed concentrations (Ci), measurement errors (εi), model parameters (ϕj), and the related function (ƒi) for i number of values. Different least-squares metrics quantify differences between predicted and observed values. The ordinary least...

Longitudinal Research

Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...

Pharmacodynamic Models: Additive and Proportional Drug Effect Model

63
Drug response models describe how pharmacological agents interact with biological systems to produce measurable effects. Baseline responses are inherent physiological activities without a drug significantly influencing the observed pharmacological outcomes. Depending on the drug response model employed, these baseline responses may combine with the drug's effect in either an additive or proportional manner.Additive Drug Response ModelIn the additive model, the drug effect is independent of the...

Multiple Regression01:25

Multiple Regression

4.3K
Multiple regression assesses a linear relationship between one response or dependent variable and two or more independent variables. It has many practical applications.
Farmers can use multiple regression to determine the crop yield based on more than one factor, such as water availability, fertilizer, soil properties, etc. Here, the crop yield is the response or dependent variable as it depends on the other independent variables. The analysis requires the construction of a scatter plot...

Model Approaches for Pharmacokinetic Data: Distributed Parameter Models

310
Pharmacokinetic models are mathematical constructs that represent and predict the time course of drug concentrations in the body, providing meaningful pharmacokinetic parameters. These models are categorized into compartment, physiological, and distributed parameter models.
The distributed parameter models are specifically designed to account for variations and differences in some drug classes. This model is particularly useful for assessing regional concentrations of anticancer or...

    Area of Science:

    • Developmental Psychology
    • Quantitative Psychology
    • Family Studies

    Background:

    • Adolescent and parent substance use are critical public health concerns.
    • Longitudinal studies are essential for understanding developmental trajectories.
    • Multilevel and cluster sampling methods are crucial for accurate analysis of family data.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To demonstrate a general model for latent variable growth analysis accounting for cluster sampling.
    • To analyze longitudinal and multilevel data on adolescent and parent substance use.
    • To examine the influence of family context on substance use trajectories.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized Multilevel Latent Growth Modeling (MLGR4) for longitudinal and multilevel data.
    • Applied an associative Latent Growth Model (LGM) to alcohol, marijuana, and cigarette use.
    • Analyzed data from 435 families across four annual time points.

    Main Results:

    • Tested hypotheses on growth curve shapes and individual differences in trajectories.
    • Examined the effects of marital status, family status, and socio-economic status.
    • Identified similarities in developmental trajectories across different substances within families.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed model effectively analyzes complex family substance use data.
    • Family-level substance use shows shared developmental patterns.
    • Contextual factors significantly impact family substance use development.
