@yorgohoebeke It's reddit. People downvote for literally no reason. Ignore it.

@yorgohoebeke I did not get an e-mail, but yes, feel free to DM me :)

@ZetaOf1 @dggoldst @le_polisson Your poll is asking what people think "Quarter 3" means. I am arguing WHY the response pattern emerges, not against the results of that poll itself.

[Manuel Rein @maevrynn]

@ZetaOf1 @dggoldst @le_polisson In the Monty Hall problem, it also "makes sense" and "is logical" to switch doors, but it is highly unintuitive. I think the use of "quarter X" is similar. Makes sense if you grew up with it or think about it longer, but is unintuitive for non-natives.

@LeonieVogelsm Thank you!

@EikoFried @Kim_De_Roover @LeonieVogelsm Thanks Eiko!

[Manuel Rein @maevrynn]

I am very proud that my first paper is now published at Structural Equation Modeling: https://t.co/kt473XP2Cp.
A huge thank you to my supervisors Jeroen Vermunt, @Kim_De_Roover, and @LeonieVogelsm for their incredible support, and the reviewers for their helpful comments :)

@Kim_De_Roover Thank you :)

@ZetaOf1 @dggoldst @le_polisson It is. If I ask for a quarter of a cake, I will get a quarter of a cake, not three quarters. If I ask to meet at a quarter of the third hour, I don't mean three quarters of the third hour. I mean 14.15, not 14.45. Yes, it is confusing for learners, but it makes sense.

If you care about detecting careless responding in intensive longitudinal data, please check out our new preprint (shared first-author work with @EUlitzsch and in collaboration with our great PhD students Irina Uglanova and @maevrynn): https://t.co/4Q7wqCZM2X #ESM #Measurement

@LauraMKoenig I also got accepted for a symposium! :-)

@EikoFried Nine years ago a picture of a dress went viral. Some saw it as gold/white, others as blue/black. Maybe your jeans are similar. The wiki article has some science stuff https://t.co/ooWQZ6cIAI

@EikoFried @a_plamondon It was also suprisingly fast given that it involves a 400x400 covariance matrix.

[Manuel Rein @maevrynn]

@EikoFried @a_plamondon I am currently using standard SEM (i.e., in wide format), where I also model latent variable like a random intercept. Your post made me curious how "far" I can take it. 400 observations with 450 individuals was no issue at all.

[Manuel Rein @maevrynn]

Functions to implement the method are available on GitHub (https://t.co/I9asBYNSel). The paper also demonstrates the application of the method by means of an empirical example.

[Manuel Rein @maevrynn]

The first paper of my PhD is now available as a preprint! We (me, Jeroen Vermunt, @Kim_De_Roover, and @LeonieVogelsm) present a novel method to estimate vector autoregressive models with latent variables in a stepwise manner (using factor scores).

[Manuel Rein @maevrynn]

Our simulation study shows that the method performs equally well in retrieving the regression parameters as "traditional" one-step SEM estimation or stepwise estimation with the new structural-after-measurement approach.
