This is a must have volume on examining change from a SEM perspective. It is thoughtfully put together beginning with a number of basic principles/concepts in the latent variable approach to change (e.g., longitudinal measurement invariance, linear and nonlinear growth). It then moves into a number of intermediate approaches (cross-lagged panel models, latent class, latent transition, and latent growth mixture models). The final chapters provide more advanced topics (time series and dynamic structural equation models, survival analysis, and missing data). The various topics covered are extensive, clearly presented, and well supported with examples and references that readers can use to work through the analyses. Ronald H. Heck, University of Hawaii This book offers a schematic, comprehensive, and well-structured resource for understanding, applying, and teaching most of the techniques related to Longitudinal SEM. The book follows a specific flow based on the difficulties of the topics. It starts with a clear introduction to latent variable modeling, then moves on widely used longitudinal applications (e.g., measurement invariance, cross-lagged panel models), and finally offers chapters on more advanced and recent topics (e.g., LST, Mixture Modeling, and DSEM). The structure of the book also allows the reader to directly access the topics of interest. Both from an applied and teaching perspective, it is difficult to think of a more complete and better structured book on longitudinal SEM. Enrico Perinelli, University of Trento (Italy) I've cited Jason Newsom's first edition of Longitudinal Structural Equation Modeling many times, and his second edition continues the tradition of clear, accessible presentations that cover both the basics of analysis and modeling strategies for longitudinal data and extra details that experts would appreciate. An impressive, authoritative work. Rex Kline, Concordia University
